DOUGLAS DRIVE SENIOR CITIZENS ASSOCIATION

Registered charity 1076161 · accounts filings on the Charity Commission register

We provide the opportunity for senior citizens of Stevenage and surrounding villages to regularly take part in our day care sessions. Activities are aimed to provide a continued feeling of well-being and prevent loneliness and isolation. Refreshments and a mid-day meal form part of their day. In the time our clients are with us, we are also providing their carer's with a much appreciated break.
