The municipality of Etten-Leur appreciates all informal caregivers who dedicate themselves to the residents of Etten-Leur. Informal caregivers are of indescribable value. The municipality therefore wants to show its appreciation for volunteer caregivers with an attention. Via a KoopLokaal voucher, the municipality gives the opportunity to select a nice gift from a local entrepreneur. Surplus arranges this appreciation on behalf of the municipality.
The informal care appreciation is for informal caregivers who provide care to a person requiring care. The appreciation can be applied for by volunteer caregivers if they meet the established volunteer care criteria of the Etten-Leur municipality. One of the conditions is that per caretaker, a maximum of two caretakers can be registered.
