The diggers have arrived on site and work has begun for the new Homelink Day Respite Care Centre, Whitton. Homelink will continue to operate from St Augustine’s Church Hall until the centre is ready. The building will be completed by October and Homelink will be moving across to the new centre from January 2015.
The new centre is being designed specifically for those with a dementia diagnosis. The colours, layout, fitting, the signage and the furnishings will all contribute to reducing anxiety in those with a dementia and creating an environment that is pleasant and homely. However, we have ensured it will also benefit our non-dementia clients who come to Homelink each week and we are particularly looking forward to a the sensory garden.

We want other caring organisations to use the building so our local carers can benefit. Should you be looking for a meeting room or wish to hire our lounge/dining area for meetings or training sessions please contact the Homelink Business Manager, Jen Clarke 020 8255 1992 who will register your interest at this stage.
