Kingston Carers' Network has recently achieved the Trusted Charity Mark Level 1 recognising the excellent work it does as a third sector organisation in England. 

Diane White, CEO, said "I am absolutely delighted that Kingston Carers’ Network’s exceptional work to support unpaid carers has been recognised, and we are very proud to receive the Trusted Charity Quality Mark.

We are grateful we have had the opportunity to review our practices and will continue to strive to improve our service to carers."

The Trusted Charity Standard is owned by the National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) and delivered by The Growth Company and is the only UK quality standard designed to help third sector organisations operate more effectively and efficiently. Kingston Carers' Network has been accredited with the Level 1 Trusted Charity Mark meaning they have met the minimum legal obligations and have systems and structures in place to protect the rights of users and employees. This was determined by being assessed against the 11 quality areas of The Trusted Charity Standard; governance, planning, leadership and management, user-centred service, managing people, learning & development, managing money, managing resources, external communications, working with others, and assessing outcomes and impact.
