COMMUNITY CENTRE IS FOR ALL - NOT JUST THE ELDERLY
A well-attended meeting at Claygate Centre in January on the provision of community support services in Elmbridge highlighted how invaluable the centre and the variety of activities that take place every week are for our village. Elmbridge Borough Council has appointed consultants to carry out a series of workshops to assess such services.
What also became clear at the meeng is that Claygate Centre in Elm Road is widely seen as just for older residents – which is not the case at all: anyone from the age of 18 can use the Centre.
Activities available include table tennis and entertainment, chair-based exercises, arts and crafts, plus footcare, hairdressing, reflexology and beauty services by appointment. The tea bar serves refreshments, including toasties, sandwiches, snacks and delicious cakes at extremely reasonable prices. And visitors don’t even have to be Centre members!
