Douglas Drive is a Day Centre supporting Senior Citizens and Stroke Survivors from Stevenage and the surrounding villages, currently providing 2 general day care sessions for the Elderly and people living with Dementia and one session for Stroke Survivors.

This week we announced the news that from September 2024, Douglas Drive will be adding a third day for General Day Care and Dementia clients, allowing us to reach more people in need of the service we provide.

We are also launching an exciting new Stroke Support Hub!… watch this space for more information!

Volunteers play a huge part in delivering the service we offer, but we always need more!

If you have a few hours to spare and would like to get involved, please do get in touch, we would love to hear from you.

Having put a shout out for a painter, Daryl of Tilbury Painting & Decorating got in touch with us.

On realising the work we do at Douglas Drive, Daryl very kindly offered to do the work with no labour costs.

Daryl gave up his time on Sunday and Bank Holiday Monday to decorate both our front porch fascia and front doors.

It looks absolutely amazing… a fantastic job Daryl, thank you, you’re a star.⭐

Issue number 13 of our Douglas Drive Newsletter is out now! Grab a cuppa and enjoy!

As one of the Mayors chosen charities we would like to thank Myla Arceno Stevenage Mayor and the Mayor’s Consort John Arceno for a fantastic evening at The Mayors Charity Ball.

Amazing amount raised for not only Douglas Drive but The Red Shed, @hertswise and Stevenage World Forum.

The staff of Douglas Drive SCA would like to wish our wonderful clients, volunteers, committee members, friends and supporters of Douglas Drive a Merry Christmas and a very Happy and Healthy New Year… Thank you for all your support this year and we look forward to seeing you all 2024!…

Lovely morning reminiscing and making these lovely poppies and displays… team work at it’s best 💜💛

To continue with our 50 years celebrations, our groups at Douglas Drive will be having a week dedicated to all things from the decade… themed food, music and activities!

We will also be having a guess who game with clients, staff and volunteers bringing in photos of themselves in the 1970’s to see if we can guess who’s who!

So hold on tight as we head back to the decade of flares, disco and all things groovy!…
