About Us
Why Chyra?
Chyra intentionally has as its essence the Cornish word 'chy' which means 'home'. The name Chyra has multiple meanings, incorporating innovation, independence, determination, courage, sincerity, smart, kind - and even 'heaven sent'. Our company is located in Cornwall and, as a company, we embody the Cornish motto 'One and All' - a philosophy of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging.
Our vision is to create an empowering community which welcomes everyone, just as they are, helps them to discover and connect with their own unique sense of purpose, and empowers them to shine brightly doing what they love. A place where they instantly feel accepted and at home. Where they feel they belong, just as they are. Putting all of this together gives us our meaning and company philosophy for Chyra.
