Douglas Drive is a Day Centre for Senior Citizens from Stevenage and surrounding villages.

Our aim is to enrich the social lives of Senior Citizens and help to prevent isolation by meeting people in similar situations.

At present we provide 3 Day Care groups for Senior Citizens, including those living with Dementia. Activities suitable for each group are organised and delivered by our activities co-ordinator assisted by our volunteers. As part of the session, and included in the daily fee, we provide a two course meal cooked at the centre and refreshments. Further information can be found on the Day Care Groups page

The centre is run by a voluntary management committee and 5 part-time staff.

We also have many regular volunteers who give their time to help keep the centre running.

Although the centre is managed by the committee the building is owned by Stevenage Borough Council. Funding from the Hertfordshire County Council Community Wellbeing Team helps to finance the running costs of the centre.

New clients are always welcome!
