CENTRE SERVICES ARE BACK UP AND RUNNING
Claygate Centre fully reopened in April from 10am to 3pm every weekday except Wednesday. Hot meals are now available to Centre members every day it’s open—a freshly cooked meal of up to three courses for £6 (or less if you skip one or more courses). These meals can be booked in advance by calling the Centre on 01372 463476.
Alternatively, the Tea Bar serves toasties, sandwiches and delicious cakes and is open to all residents at reasonable prices—you don’t have to be a Centre member to enjoy it.
Most activities and entertainment have also now been restored. Chair-based yoga and exercise classes are available on Monday and Thursday mornings; table tennis is available on Monday afternoons; entertainment is arranged for Thursday afternoons after lunch, and bingo and a quiz are available on Monday and Tuesday afternoons respectively.
On Fridays, art and craft sessions are now available again from 10.15am to 11.15am and “Knit and Sew” sessions are available in the afternoon from 1.15pm to 2.15pm. Footcare, hairdressing, reflexology and beauty services are also available by appointment. It’s a great place to find company and conversation or somewhere safe and warm to go to during the colder days. Anyone needing help getting to Claygate Centre can call it on 01372 463476 for more information about community transport or any of the activities mentioned above.
CHRISTMAS FAYRE
The Centre’s annual Christmas Fayre is scheduled for Saturday November 6. Among the many attractions will be the opportunity to buy Christmas presents and stocking-fillers, as well as the opportunity to win prizes at various stalls. There will even be a visit from Father Christmas.
DEMENTIA SERVICES GROUP
The Dementia Services Group has settled smoothly into Claygate Centre, providing a much needed service on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 10am until 3pm. It provides vital care and stimulation for those living with dementia, and invaluable respite for carers and family members. It achieves this by providing engaging activities and social interaction. The service also supports families and carers by offering advice and information.
Everyone is welcome to drop in on the “Musical Memories” sessions every second Tuesday of the month between 1.30pm and 2.30pm or the “Sing-a-long” afternoon tea sessions on the last Friday of the month between 1pm and 2pm, both of which are held in the main hall at Claygate Centre.
