Leicester
City Council runs and manages a number of days centres across the city, which
are open to people with a variety of support needs.
- Day centres promote independence and help quality of life for adults with
- physical, sensory and/or learning disabilities or mental health issues.
- They allow users to socialise and play an active part in the community.
- They also provide vital breaks for carers. Meals, refreshments and transport can be provided if needed.
Who can use a day centre?
- To access city council day centres you must have a community care
assessment and be assessed as eligible to receive this service under Fair Access to Care Services (FACS) criteria.
- If you would like to talk about accessing support to
meet your social care needs you should discuss this with your social
worker.
- If you do not have a social worker you should contact LeicesterCity Council Adult Social Care and ask to speak to the Access Service.
