We are now offering a Dementia Day Care Service and a Respite at Home Service to help support you, or someone you know. Alongside these two services, we will also be running maintenance cognitive stimulation therapy in the future.
With winter (almost) behind us the charity is relaunching its services and support to a wider audience.
Community Activities
For fitness or just a gentle workout our Fitmove, Yoga and Tai Chi classes are available at our Belvedere site. Or if two wheels are your thing, why not join our cycling club based at our Men's Shed in Erith.
If it's social connections, and the opportunity to meet for drinks and a catch-up, our Befriending Cafe's in various venues across the borough provide just the ticket.
If walking is more your thing, we offer two guided walks in the borough, for now these are meeting fortnightly at Danson Park and Lesnes Abbey. We will even throw in a hot drink and refreshments through our partner Cafe's in the parks. We would like to get more adventurous, and are open to suggestions for new walks, so join us and take us somewhere new.
Our day-based services are offering a suite of nursing care and non-nursing support services. So if you are looking for a day of social activities and a hot meal, more specialist care at our day centre, support from our dementia specialist service or help at home from our Day Care at Home team we may have exactly what you are looking for.
Putting Your Best Foot Forward
Our Foot Care service is now running clinics in Sidcup and Belvedere. The service is open to anyone of any age, so call us to book an appointment and get your feet ready for summer and beyond.
Our men's shed in Erith (which, despite its name is also open to women too) offers social, practical and skills-based activities at the machine shop, its garden, and its cycling project. We are also opening an offshoot in partnership with Welling Football Club. So why not apply your machine tools skills, horticultural abilities or your cycling legs to get you out and about.
If supporting us is more your thing, then why not check out our volunteer opportunities, or just find ways of raising money to support our commitment to older people.

Our Day Care Services accommodates the new realities of a post-Covid world and adheres to strict government protocols and guidelines. We are currently the only approved Day Care provider in the borough that is licensed to operate under the current restrictions. We offer Day Care services both at home and at our Day Care Centre.
Keeping feet healthy is very important and a necessary part of ageing well. Toe nails don't unfortunately go into lock down and stop growing. So if your feet need a little love and attention, come and see us.
