02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
We are a Day Centre for anyone over the age of 60 located in Newton Stewart. Our main objectives within the centre are to provide a warm, friendly place for the older people to come to 5 days a week , where they can have a freshly cooked 3 course meal, meet new people, and become less socially isolated. We provide transport each day within a 25 mile radius as our area is very rural. We have afternoon activities each day and also day trips allowing our members to have a run out.
