Homelink Day Respite Centre’s autumn programme of activities for carers

Homelink Day Respite Centre has updated its Autumn offer of a range of activities for carers and their loved ones.

Homelink offers a range of services and support for unpaid carers and their loved ones. These services for carers are mostly free, based at Homelink and open to all local carers of older people, not just those who have loved ones attending our Day Respite Centre.

Activities and events for carers during Autumn 2024

Special events

Over the next 6 months the Homelink Carers Support team will be organising several outings for Carers and Loved Ones including a Boat Trip, Lunch at Bushy Park, visits to Kew Gardens and Orleans Gallery. Homelink will be sending information via email nearer the dates and there will be posters at Homelink to promote the events. Please call or email for dates and more information (see contact details below).
