Day opportunities for older people

We have two day services to support older people and people living with dementia. 

These are located at: 

  • The Maples based at Park View, Monkspath Hall Road, Solihull, B91 3LU
  • Colebrook Day Centre, 291 Bosworth Drive, Chelmsley Wood, B37 5DP 

We aim to provide purposeful activities and support in a safe, engaging and caring environment to:

  • enhance quality of life
  • promote independence
  • reduce isolation

Our day services also offer help with personal care, nutritious meals and refreshments, and carer respite and support. 

People can join in a wide range of activities including:

  • social activities such as games, arts and crafts, gardening, music
  • cognitive engagement including reminiscence sessions (sharing memories), puzzles
  • gentle exercise such as chair yoga, stretching, walking groups
  • community activities including shopping, going out for lunch, breakfast clubs, dementia cafes
  • maintaining independent living skills such as baking and cooking
