We are a first point of call for information to help elderly people, and can advise where to get the services they may need. Phone us but be ready to leave a message with your name and number because we are not always there to answer. If we don't know the answer we try to find out and get back to you.
Or email info@ageconcernbracknell.org.uk.

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
