Our Dementia Day Service is suitable for those who are living with dementia but are able, with support, to enjoy spending time with others in a group setting.

Most of us want our loved ones to remain independent for as long as possible, but sometimes a diagnosis of dementia makes caring for them a little harder than it used to be. Our Dementia Day Service combines a safe, enjoyable experience for them with an opportunity for you, the carer, to recharge your batteries for a day.

At the Day Centre we can offer people with dementia:

• A secure, peaceful environment
• Activities designed to engage and stimulate
• Socialising with others in small groups
• A healthy and nutritious two course hot lunch and refreshments
• Signposting to other services for carers

Is it suitable for you?

If you feel that the person you care for might benefit from Day Care, please contact us and we will arrange to meet both of you to make sure that this is the right option for you. We might suggest that you visit the Day Centre to have a look round. Once we've agreed on the day or days that Day Care will be needed, we can offer your loved one a trial session.

What times does the service run?

Day Care starts at 9.30am until 3.00pm, or for a shorter period by arrangement.

How do I pay?

You will be sent an invoice at the beginning of the month for the services you were provided with in the previous month. You can either make payment by card by calling us on 01303 269602 or by paying on line via BACS. Please note, we no longer accept payment by cash or cheque.

How do I get in touch?

You can make contact with us by emailing admin@ageukhla.org.uk or calling 01303 269602. We will take your details and pass them on to the relevant team member.
