CREST Day Care Service

For older adults

CREST provides a Day Service for older adults with Disabilities and/or Dementia as well as for those who are feeling lonely and isolated.

We encourage clients to travel independently to the service but we can usually (subject to demand) provide accessible transport. Our transport collects clients from Walthamstow, Leyton, Leytonstone, Chingford, Highams Park and Woodford. We have our own escorts on board to assist clients to and from the centre and clients are collected between 9.30am-10.45am and returned home between 3.45pm-5.30pm. 

CREST offers the following at the Day Service:

  • Refreshments on arrival and a morning activity such as board games, puzzles, arts & crafts, exercises, or quizzes.
  • A healthy two course lunch.
  • After lunch we have outside guests, ranging from musicians, music therapists, personal instructors for Tai-Chi and armchair aerobics/exercises.
  • Afternoon refreshments at the end of the day before clients leave Colby Lodge.

Try it for Free

Speak to your social worker or to Misha on 07881 017 366 / 0208 521 2975 / misha.riaz@crestwf.org.uk. One of them will help with arranging an assessment to make sure your needs can be met, organising a free trial session, and explaining how your personal care budget can cover the cost of future fees.
