We offer support with personal care. We encourage clients to enjoy company and take advantage of the many activities/social events and services which we provide. These include:

• outings;
• group activities (quiz games, music);
• library service; and
• support and advice to carers.

We provide tea and snacks on arrival, lunch, then afternoon tea or juice and biscuits. We cater for all dietary needs. There is a day care charge and a small fee for meals. Staff can tell you how much it will cost, or give you a price list of additional services such as hairdressing or chiropody.


It is suitable for people who use wheelchairs and there are handrails throughout for those with poor mobility.
