Always “Time for a Cuppa” at Bridgewater Day Care Centre

7th May 2021

At Bridgewater Day Care Centre we can always make time for a cuppa with our clients. Bridgewater Day Care Centre in Golborne offers a fun, supportive, community service to support older people and those with a form of dementia in a home-away-from-home environment.

Every year at the Day Care Centre in Golborne we always get excited about Dementia UK’s “Time for a Cuppa”  annual event, raising awareness and fundraising for more dementia specialist Admiral Nurses, who give life-changing support to families facing dementia.

Bridgewater Day Care Centre has been fully operational since the outbreak of the pandemic last year and has implemented full COVID-19 guidelines with social distancing measures in place so clients and their families can rest assured they are in safe hands and that our clients can safely take part in all the events that we hold here.

Party Time at the Day Care Centre
This year the Day Care Centre’s theme was “Mary Poppins ” and we wanted to make sure that all our clients had a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious time! We held lots of fun games and raffles for our clients and made bird feeders and fabulous hats! and let’s not forget the scrumptious cakes!

Admiral Nurses

Dementia specialist support from Dementia UK’s Admiral Nurses is so important, which is why we want to raise awareness.
When things get challenging or difficult for people with dementia and their families, Admiral Nurses work alongside them; giving compassionate one-to-one support, expert guidance and practical solutions which can be hard to find elsewhere. They are continually trained, developed and supported by Dementia UK.
Dementia UK currently has 307 Admiral Nurses who have supported families throughout the pandemic across a range of care settings. The charity also has its Admiral Nurse Dementia Helpline, which is busier than ever before with responding to calls from families who have no one else to turn to.
If you need advice or support on living with dementia contact Dementia UK’s Admiral Nurse Dementia Helpline on 0800 888 6678 or email helpline@dementiauk.org. The Helpline is staffed by experienced Admiral Nurses, who give vital support by telephone or email.

The centre is currently welcoming new clients, so if you would like to know more about Bridgewater Day Care Centre in Golborne or to discuss the activities and support that it can provide for your loved one, please contact us by phone at 01942 723 115 or email info@bridgewaterdaycare.co.uk.
