What to expect in Daycare

Our Daycare facility provides a wide range of services in order to support the range of people who come to Nottinghamshire Hospice.

Transport

People may choose to make their own transport arrangements, or they can travel by a car driven by a volunteer. Alternatively, for the less mobile, collection by one of our wheelchair accessible mini-buses can be arranged.

Reception

The warm, welcoming reception area has a payphone for general use. A selection of gifts, sundries and greetings cards is available to purchase with profits going to the Hospice.

Catering

On arrival at Daycare, hot drinks and toast are served. An appetising two course lunch is provided and afternoon tea with home-made cakes is available before departing for home.

Special dietary needs can be catered for by our experienced Catering team. Assistance with meals can be provided by the nursing staff if required.

Activities

People who attend Daycare may learn new new skills or join in group activities organised by the Creative Therapist. For example, creative writing, artwork, quilling, board games, quizzes, entertainment and day trips.
