Can I come along for a visit to see what Acredale is like?
Yes, people are very welcome to come along for a visit. An older person who is interested in attending the Day Centre can bring a member of their family along to accompany them on their visit. Please contact our manager to arrange an appointment. The health, safety and wellbeing of all our older people, staff and volunteers remain our top priority and to ensure the Day Centre is safe there are a number of measures in place which will be discussed with you when you arrange your visit.
Can I attend with a relative?
The Centre is designed to provide older people an opportunity to socialise and meet others. Some people may be a little anxious about attending the Day Centre initially and arrangements can be made for a relative to accompany you for a short time until you feel settled.
If I have dietary requirements will these be catered for?
We provide a nutritious two course lunch and cater for all special diets and also provide snacks and drinks throughout the day.
