A great place to meet people and pursue new
activities and interests.

Adult day care in York.

Friendly and fun, day centre activities and support.

Getting together, keeping up social skills and having fun is a great boost to our wellbeing. They are also some of the best ways to combat loneliness and depression, lowering hospital admissions and prescribed medication.

Join us and be among friends

Offering flexible daily, weekly and respite adult day care for the over 50s Monday to Friday, we are specialists in adult and elderly care for those with dementia related illnesses and Parkinson’s. 

“I wanted somewhere where people would get to know my husband. Know when he’s having a bad day, what his interests are, and they certainly have. Donna and her team are amazing… Wonderful support from a fab team!” Sheryl

Our clients enjoy socialising, crafts, cooking and entertainment. Everyday is different and we tailor our activities to the things our clients enjoy, together with seasonal celebrations, what’s happening locally and in the wider world. Our fees are transparent and fully inclusive of all drinks, snacks, a two-course hot lunch and all activities and VAT.

A kind, welcoming and happy place to spend time together

A secure and comfortable day care centre with our own enclosed garden, you’ll find us behind Apple Tree Care Home in Strensall, just outside York. Our highly trained and dedicated team are here to help ensure our clients get the most out of life: keeping up old hobbies and finding new ones; enjoying others’ company and companionship; keeping busy and having fun.

A regular member or some respite care, we offer experienced care and individual attention
