We offer several types of Carer Friendly Awards and this service is completely FREE. We offer guidance and support throughout the process, including awareness-raising training sessions and up to date resources for Carers.

Are you a community organisation or service in Nottinghamshire?

Become a Carer Friendly Service or organisation

Our Carer friendly community award is presented to community organisations or services who commit to recognising and supporting unpaid carers who access their service. We celebrate community organisations that go above and beyond to identify, value, and support carers in their area.

On completion of any of our awards you will receive:

·                  A Carer Friendly quality mark to use on your literature and website

·                  An award certificate to display

·                  Promotion of your achievement via our social media channels

·                  A case study for inclusion on our website

·                  Support materials – to promote your Carer friendly status

·                  Local & national signposting to help in the community

·                  Networking with other Carer champions

If your organisation would like to learn more about being carer friendly, and the difference you can make to carers, please do get in touch with us info@nottinghamshirecarers.co.uk
