Support For Carers
If you are a carer, looking after someone who is ill, frail or disabled, you can have our support and meet with other carers for social contact.
For registration and further information ring Mrs. C. Traer, the Co-ordinator on 01392 464940
Day Centre
Our purpose-built Day Centre is open on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Bathing facilities are offered on Tuesdays.
Its aim is to enable people to continue to live an independent life at home for as long as they wish to do so and to give support to Carers.
There are several skilled members of staff on duty and each client is encouraged to participate in structured and planned activities. An individual plan of care is devised for each client.
Lunch and drinks are provided.
Referrals and attendance can be arranged through Mrs. C. Traer, the Co-ordinator – at the Broadclyst Day Centre – telephone 01392 464940.
Luncheon Club
We offer a Luncheon Club once a month for those who are normally housebound, and their carers. The Car Service provides transport, where required, to and from the Club and a good lunch is served at a very reasonable price. Diet meals are provided for those with special dietary needs.
To arrange attendance or get further information ring Ann Southard, the Office Manager or Carole Traer, the Co-ordinator on 01392 464940
Transport Service
We provide transport to the Surgery at Pinhoe or Broadclyst, or to a Chiropodist or Dentist for patients who are unable to drive or make use of public transport. If you wish to use this facility you must first consult your doctor who will advise C.C.F that you need transport. Once you are on our list you phone the C.C.F. office when you have an appointment and we will try to arrange transport for you.
Passengers are asked to contribute towards the cost of their journey. Information on current charges is available from the Clyst Caring Friends office.
To arrange transport or have your name added to the list ring our Co-ordinator at the C.C.F. Office – 01392 464940
