Where to find us
The Day Centre is situated at the front of Windmill Lodge, which consists of a large lounge area, activity/dining room, kitchen, and toilet facilities. There is easy access from the front car park area.
How it works
The Day Centre will complete its own assessment of needs, this allows us to actively seek out the interests and hobbies of the individual. Therefore, this makes the sessions joyful, meaningful, and above all, person-centred.
The Day Centre staff will also need to know about any dietary, mobility, and medication prior to attendance.
Once an individual is accepted to the Day Centre, you can easily access the secure online booking system. Where sessions can be booked securely with a payment card.
For anyone interested in joining the Day Centre, you can fill out the enquiry form. Then one of our members of staff will be in touch with more information.
