Symbolism

Our colour-scheme is inspired by the fuchsia flower because it’s endemic to Aotearoa, the birthplace and cradle of our organisation, and because pink is a brave colour to adorn. It’s not a safe, universally liked colour like blue or beige. The point of love isn’t “liking” someone or finding them easy to bear, but being kind to them regardless.
