It gets me up in the morning

"It gets me up in the morning"

About: Stevenson Day Centre

(as a service user),

I think Stevenson Day Service is excellent. It gets me up in the morning, dressed and out the door. It's also a good way to meet people.

The staff here are excellent & approachable.

It is interesting when you meet fellow travellers like yourself, and the activities here are quite good. We all join in whether its exercising or a quiz. I look forward to coming.

Because I live on my own, I think it's a great service for people like me. My daughter thinks the service is wonderful as I get out & about and meet different people.

The only negative thing I can say is, it is not advertised. Dementia Services are so why not Day Service. I believe the old Day Service, 'The Strand', was established in 1963. It really should be known, as Largs is full of old people who would benefit from coming.

Dear Ron 31


Many thanks for taking the time to get in touch with us about your experiences of Stevenson Day Services in Largs and it is clear from your comments that you enjoy attending.

The staff will be delighted to hear your kind words and I will make a point of passing them on to the team there.

As far as advertising the service goes, we make sure that vulnerable people in the community are offered the chance to access the service via a needs led assessment and that way we make sure that those who need the service most, are able to attend.

Once again, many thanks for getting in touch.
