Compassionate Elderly Day Care — Serving Derby & South Derbyshire
Finding the time to give a loved one the care they need can be hard. When things get tough, it's okay to ask for a little extra help - and that's exactly where we come in.
At Hickling House, we specialise in day care for people living with Dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, offering warm, expert support across Derby and South Derbyshire. We also welcome anyone who's simply feeling lonely, isolated, or would benefit from support with mobility - our doors are open to all older adults who'd value some company and care during the day, not just those with a diagnosed condition.
Every visit includes a two-course home-cooked lunch, refreshments throughout the day, and a programme of activities designed around our clients' needs - from chair-based exercise and arts and crafts to music, memory games, and time in our garden.
With over 30 years in elderly care, we've built a service that families trust - many of whom tell us it's the small, personal touches that make the biggest difference. Whether you need regular respite so you can rest, or simply want your loved one to enjoy some friendly company, we'd love to help.
Get in touch today to arrange a visit and see Hickling House for yourself.
