The vehicle will support residents at Newgate Lodge Care Home and Lowmoor Nursing Home, as well as people receiving care and support in their own homes. It will provide greater opportunities to enjoy activities, outings and events across Mansfield, Ashfield and beyond.

The new minibus reflects Lidder Care’s commitment to enriching lives, promoting independence and helping the people it supports remain connected with their local communities.

Manjas Lidder, Managing Director of Lidder Care, said: “We are delighted to introduce our new accessible minibus, which represents another important investment in the wellbeing of the people we support.

“It will enable more residents and home care clients to enjoy meaningful experiences, visit places that are important to them and remain connected with their communities.”
The vehicle has already made a positive impact, with residents from Newgate Lodge Care Home enjoying its first outing to Titchfield Park in Mansfield.

By investing in dedicated accessible transport, Lidder Care aims to remove some of the barriers that can prevent older people and those with additional needs from accessing the places, people and experiences they enjoy.

Community outings form an important part of Lidder Care’s person-centred approach, helping to promote independence, reduce social isolation and support people to continue living fulfilling and enriched lives.

Lidder Care has supported individuals and families across Mansfield and Ashfield for more than 30 years. The family-run care provider operates Newgate Lodge Care Home in Mansfield, Lowmoor Nursing Home in Kirkby-in-Ashfield and Lidder Care’s home care service, supporting people to remain independent in their own homes.
