More about the need for funding

Nottingham Mencap is an independent local charity, (Charity Commission registration number 1046081) and relies entirely on the efforts of staff and
volunteers to obtain income and provide services.

We do receive some funding from local statutory authorities, as well as the Big Lottery Fund, European Social Fund and Learning & Skills Council. A
number of trusts and local companies have also pledged their support for Nottingham Mencap projects.

Providing quality services and support costs a great deal of money. Available income allows some progress with these activities but some areas would
welcome more financial support.

We would like to maintain and increase the range of services we provide to children and adults with a learning disability, their families and carers in
Greater Nottingham. This will only be possible with the support of statutory funding to maintain the long term stability of our Charity and its activities.
We maintain rigorous budgetary control and our ability to deliver best value is recognised by the funders who have increased their investments in our
services.

We are conscious that we have achieved much in recent years, especially in the area of Learning and Development. However, we recognise that there
is still much to be done before people with a learning disability in Greater Nottingham receive the services they deserve. We shall continue to
campaign, to lobby, to apply for funding and welcome any help in maintaining this effort.
