Context

Age UK Wandsworth is a local, independent charity that works to promote the wellbeing of all older people in the London Borough of Wandsworth.

Age UK Wandsworth manages the Gwynneth Morgan Day Centre, delivering flexible support to older people, adults with disabilities, and adults with dementia. Clients come to the Day Centre to participate in stimulating activities of their choice.

Referrals into the Day Centre Service come directly from Wandsworth Council’s frontline social care teams. Clients usually visit the Day Centre Service for a full day, depending on their care and support plans, and we organise their transport in our minibuses to and from their homes.

Our purpose-built centre features a well-equipped accessible gym, training kitchen, IT suite, garden, and we also have a professional kitchen so we can deliver freshly-made meals to clients each day to meet all their specific dietary needs.

This is a unique opportunity for someone with great energy, efficiency and enthusiasm to work closely with our experienced Day Centre Team to manage and further develop “a day centre with a difference” in Wandsworth.
