How we can support you

We support customers who have additional needs such as decreased mobility, or people who are living with conditions such as Alzheimer’s, dementia and Parkinson’s. We have customers who are in good health but come to our day centres to socialise and also support people with more complex health needs.

Our network of day centres provide a flexible programme of both on-site and community-based activities which aim to maintain your choice, control, and independence. We specialise in person-centred care. This means no ‘one size fits all’ approach. Each customer has a tailored support plan, designed to keep them as happy and as healthy as possible.

We can provide the following:

  • Specialist support for people living with a range of conditions, including dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. For more information, click to find out about people with dementia.
