Trinity Day Centre
Trinity Day Centre is a magical place, wherein the over 60's get the opportunity to meet people, have a great dinner and share their feelings and ideas with other local people.
There are many activities that our clients love to get involved in. Sheila, one of our regulars to the daycentre, says:
‘The day centre has helped me a great deal. I wouldn't be without it. I enjoyed coming since my husband passed away. I would be lost without help, with shopping, which they help me with. I would never be able to do it otherwise'.
I have been a member of staff, here, for 3 years and feel I am part of a family environment. We, the staff team, are very welcoming and we are always willing to help, support and promote our clients independence and empowerment. It helps so many of our clients become more independent and sociable. Another of our clients, Nina, enjoys participating in the activities, computers and the quiz, and says;
‘The day centre is a means of getting out. Everyone is so kind. I look forward to coming. The quiz keeps my mind active. I feel being sociable is an important part of staying independent. This is exactly what I get from coming here'.
I have just recently qualified, in January, as a Counsellor, with support from Trinity Care Service and this has helped me in my role activities as Activities Co-coordinator/Care worker. I enjoy listening to my client's stories and experience's and I respect, so much, the fact that the client's have experienced so much in their lives, good and bad. There is so much depth to our little community at Trinity, and the more you spend time here, the more depth you will start to feel.
