Our vision is to ensure that Inverclyde is a caring, compassionate community, working together to promote kindness and improve health and wellbeing. We know that kindness is at the very heart of our wellbeing. Together we can achieve this by making purposeful positive contributions to our community, to each other and to ourselves.
We want to hear your stories. We want to hear how you perform acts of kindness. We know that many kind and compassionate acts are taking place in Inverclyde every day. The Kindness Award is to show to you or someone you know that your actions are appreciated and deserve to be recognised.
The Kindness Award is for everyone. Individuals of all ages, for you or someone you know, for groups, organisations and businesses.
We want to share your story to encourage others to get involved. If you don’t want that to happen then, that’s fine, we’ll keep your details private and you can still get your Award.
Individual Award Holders will receive a Certificate and a Badge. Companies and organisations will receive a Certificate and be given permission to use our Award Logo on their Headed Paper. In the future we hope to be able to offer even more ways to promote your Award.
We want Inverclyde to be recognised as Scotland’s first Compassionate Community. If we can get more people, groups, organisations and businesses involved it’ll help us reach our goal.
Just tell us your inspirational story. What did you, or someone you know, do that was kind or compassionate? How did it help someone? How did it make a difference?
Download and fill out the form below, send to alison@compassionateinverclyde.org attaching your story and, with your permission, we will post some of them periodically on our social media and/or website.
