The Clubhouse offers a number of services such as a lunch and social club; special events; a Carers’ Support Hub and local minibus service. We are adding to these services all the time, so watch this space!
A two-course home-cooked meal, including tea/coffee is available on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays which is charged at £12/pp.
Various activities are also offered such as light chair yoga on a Monday, shared reading sessions on a Wednesday (the reading aloud of captivating novels, short stories, or poems and reflection on thoughts, feelings, and memories inspired by the readings. There’s no pressure to read aloud or speak – you’re welcome to simply listen and enjoy the experience) and interactive/craft activities.
All lunches need to be booked at least 24 hours in advance and are served at 12.30pm.
On the last Friday of every month, we serve delicious, fresh fish & chips from McDermotts, plus a dessert at a cost of £12/pp. This is followed by a number of rounds of prize bingo and raffles. It is a very lively lunch session and very popular, so definitely needs to be booked well in advance
The Clubhouse has a 10-seater minibus, which is driven by security-checked volunteers, together with a passenger assistant who helps clients on and off the minibus and provides a door-to-door service. It is available for those who are unable to get to the Clubhouse independently (within a 1.5 mile radius of the Clubhouse), but at this stage is unable to accommodate wheelchair users. The cost for the minibus is £2.50 per person, per trip.
The Carers’ Support Hub aims to bridge the gap between carers and support services, offering a welcoming and easily accessible space where carers can receive guidance, and connect with others in similar circumstances.
It is held on the last Tuesday of every month from 11:30-13:00pm
No need to book, just drop in and enjoy tea, coffee, cake, and conversation in a warm, welcoming space where you can:
✔ Speak with professionals about help and resources
✔ Meet other carers who understand
✔ Take time for you
Did you know?
💬 57% of carers feel overwhelmed
💬 65% say they haven’t had a proper break
💬 55% feel councils don’t recognise their needs
We’re here to change that – one cup of tea at a time
