Help line   01344 428074

We are a first point of call for information to help elderly people. We cannot give advice or recommend particular suppliers but we are sympathetic and try to find who can supply what they need.

Call us between 9am and 1pm, but please be ready to leave a message with your name and number because there may not be a volunteer to answer the phone every day. If we don't know the answer we try to find out and get back to you.

Or email info@ageconcernbracknell.org.uk.

Our office is at the Forest Park Day Centre: 27 Worlds End Hill, Bracknell   RG12 0XH.

Day Care Centre   01344 422048

Our Day Centre has an excellent reputation because it makes a real difference to elderly people, including those suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. We provide the social contact and stimulation which is important for their wellbeing, and helps them to stay longer in their own homes.

Members usually attend twice per week and we can take 20 per day, Monday to Friday. We pick them up from home in a minibus with tail-lift and carer/escort. We have a full time activities co-ordinator and they get personal attention and a wholesome lunch.

Equally important, this frees up family and carers... more
