Community Day Care Centre

Trusted Homecare is excited to launch The Community Day Care Centre located in Branstone, Lake on the Isle of Wight, in June 2025. The Community Day Care Centre specialises in supporting those with social isolation, old age, mild to moderate Dementia or those with Parkinson's Disease. The Community Day Care Centre focuses on improving all aspects of our attendees wellbeing through stimulating activities, music and companionship.

Benefits of Day Care

There is rising evidence to suggest there is a growing loneliness problem in the UK. With more older adults living with long term illness, disability and mobility difficulties, social isolation has ensued.

Much of the care for those needing support is provided either by loved ones or Care Teams providing support at home. Day Centres provide a vital outlet for those needing assistance while also seeking more interaction with those of a similar age with shared interests.

Being able to connect with others is our Day Care Centres primary purpose. Being part of a compatible group boosts both happiness and wellbeing.

For families providing support, The Community Day Care Centre provides much needed respite, providing the opportunity to recharge and and enjoy some 'me time', with the peace of mind their loved one is in safe hands.

During our initial introduction our Activities Manager will build a bespoke Support Plan which includes your hobbies and interests so we can build our support around you, maybe trying new experiences too.

Our Director Abigail says the Community Day Care Centre is a wonderful opportunity for older adults to enjoy the company of others and to reduce the feeling of isolation.

"Some people may live alone and have visiting care once or twice a day, the social aspect of this is really important for people to live well at home."
