Welcoming and Local Day Centre For The Elderly In Chelmsford, Essex

For the elderly who are still living in their own homes, a day centre can provide them with support to maintain their independence. As people grow older, inevitably they become not as able as they once were which can be difficult for them to accept. A day centre can provide them with a support network where they can ask for advice from others on how to remain as self-sufficient as possible in their old age.

Our Day Trips

We value your individuality, which is why we consider all the achievements that our guests accomplish during their time with us and advertise them in our daily announcements. So, that your accomplishments are shared and enjoyed by all in the community.

 

Day trips include visits to:

  • Marsh Farm

  • Local Town centres

  • Theatre shows

  • Local swimming pool

  • Tourist attractions

  • Beaches and Zoos

 

There is often a small fee to cover the costs of transport and tickets.

​

When the day is over, the minibus will drop you back at your house at an agreed time.
