Care
At the heart of our Older People’s Service is the Millman Street Centre, the joy of what we do is providing a safe, welcoming, friendly and stimulating space for all older people, with an integrated approach to care: from those who are more able through to those with higher level dementia needs.
What We Offer
From Millman Street we operate a range of responsive and attractive services: Day Care, Outreach and Befriending services.
Our aim is to promote active minds, inspiration and healthy well-being.
Day Care
A safe, homely environment, offering engaging and varied activities, freshly cooked hot food and good company. Providing great opportunities for respite, learning and fun.
Our activities programme is vibrant, varied and therapeutic with focus on movement, creativity and art.
With brilliant partnerships in the community and with other voluntary organisations, our care staff team are experienced in working with Over 55s and their families. Taking a person centred approach to care planning, we make sure they find out about each person’s story.
Acting as a voice for the older people who attend our Day Centre, our care staff are there to help you. Whether it be managing health care appointments, medication, you will find at a Millman Street, it is care your way,
