Carer friendly community organisation award for Inspire
It was a pleasure to visit ‘Inspire: Culture, Learning and Libraries’ at Mansfield Library and present them with their Carer Friendly Community Organisation Award. This is the 3rd year of renewal, and an acknowledgement of the support and help they continue to provide for Carers. Along with the award certificate, they will have our Carer Friendly Quality Mark to showcase their commitment to Carers.
Well done! ….for all that you do and continue to do for Carers who access all your libraries, activities, groups and wide range of adult education and cultural services.
Quote from Ann Penn (December 2025) -
“We are extremely happy to be awarded the Carer Friendly Quality Mark again in 2025. Our partnership with Nottinghamshire Carers and the training they provide for staff means that we have gained a deeper understanding of caring and the issues and involved, and we are able to provide the best, up-to-date information on services and resources available to carers.”
