The agreed corporate objects for Iver
Community Libraries Ltd are:-
To advance the education of the public by the operation,
promotion and improvement of public library facilities and associated activities
in the interest of social welfare, recreation and leisure in the parish of Iver.
To work with local statutory authorities and Iver Educational Trust to meet
these aims.
We wish everyone in Iver and
Richings Park to:
·
Be healthy
·
Stay safe
·
Enjoy and achieve
·
Make a positive contribution
·
Achieve economic well-being
through providing resources and
opportunities within both library settings and at St Peter’s Centre
The Iver library project has a main focus in reaching
children, although there will be activities which reach out to older people. It
is about making sure that all age groups in society can have a good life,
whoever they are, and no matter what problems they may face.
The aim is to make everyone aware of the activities
children and young people need to help them to be happy, successful, healthy and
safe.
We want our children and young people
to
· Develop life long learning skills for further learning
· Become more socially aware
· Become good citizens
We also wish to:
· Improve work opportunities and experience for people with learning
disabilities
· Raise their quality of life
· Reduce the risk of Social Exclusion
· Assist with information and offering support
We also wish that
· Older people should have the opportunity to participate in society,
including through employment and volunteering, and should not have to overcome
age barriers to achieve this.
· Older people are
free from the disadvantages of, isolation and neglect, so they can live with
dignity as valued, respected and involved members of society.
