Review from Anne M (Wife of Resident) published on 28 August 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My husband started at Mills Meadow in April 2026 having been highly recommended by a neighbour. It is an excellent Day Centre. The Manager was so friendly, welcoming, understanding and knowledgeable on his taster day and is helpful to me too. She cares for and supports the family as much as the person attending. I am not the only one to go into her office in tears, come out feeling a lot better. All the staff are lovely & have got to know my husband. £60 per day (including a 3 course lunch) is worth every penny.

Overall Experience

Mills Meadow Club is a lifeline for us, my husband has dementia with Lewy Body and life can be very challenging when we are together all the time. The day he goes to the club is the only time we are apart to do something different. I know my husband is well cared for there, safe at all times, entertained fed and amused. I can also go for coffee with friends or do my own thing and not have to worry about him.

Overall Experience

My mother attends the day centre at Mills Meadow. I have been very impressed with the care and professionalism of the staff. It is a chance for her to talk to different people and take part in well coordinated activities. Overall we have been very impressed with everything the day centre has to offer and would very much recommend it.

Review from H T (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I arrived to pick up mum unannounced, I was welcomed in, taken to mum and was made to feel very welcome, whilst I waited, staff continued their work. They showed respect and kindness towards all the residents in the day centre. They were professional in their interaction with all, including other staff colleagues. The general atmosphere feels relaxed, unrushed, friendly and safe. The environment is clean, bright and airy, decoration is in good order. Mum enjoyed her lunch and could have more if she wanted. It is so good to know that its always a positive day which mum enjoys. Thank you.

Overall Experience

My mother attends Mills Meadow three days a week. During March she has received excellent care. The activities have been fun, stimulating and have had a positive impact on her overall mental and physical health. The carers are kind, professional and provide individual attention to everyone attending. The three course lunches have been delicious and nutritious and my mother enjoys them very much. A big thank you to the staff at Mills Meadow.

Overall Experience

Our mum had become very lonely since her neighbour died. Mills Meadow was recommended to us. Mum absolutely loves it. Her favourite days are when she attends. The staff are so kind, caring and understanding of those who need care and friendship. Variety of activities for everyone, visits and outings! I cannot fault the service given.

Overall Experience

My husband suffers from dementia and has been going once a week and recently twice a week. He loves it and really looks forward to going. He thoroughly enjoys the activities and says lunch is first class. He certainly enjoys the company and I would have no hesitation in recommending The Mills Meadow Club.

Review from P W (Partner of Resident) published on 15 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Attending The Mills Meadow Day Club has been a transformation for my partner who has moderate Alzheimer's. This has become the highlight of her week, starts talking about it the day before and returns home with more confidence and a much more positive persona. The staff at the club are all marvellous being cheerful and very helpful and somehow transfer this spirit into my partner. She loves coming to the club which is having a bigger impact on her well-being than the pills that are prescribed for her.

Review from Trudy S (Wife of Resident) published on 6 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My husband has been very happy coming to the Day Club twice a week he enjoys the company and even joins in the activities. He loves the meals and even sits at the table with the other club users which is something he refuses to do at home, he has a table in front of his sofa. The day club manager and staff are wonderful they encourage him to go to do activities and craft work. He has something to look forward to each week and also has things to tell his family. He likes the pictures they take.

Review from Anne D (Wife of Resident) published on 1 June 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My husband has has logopenic Alzheimer's and aphasia, which has robbed him of intelligible speech, though he still wants to talk to people. He is also very anxious when away from me. The staff at The Mills Meadow Club have been so good at communicating with him, identifying his interests, and providing a warm and reassuring environment. I really value having a few hours to myself whilst my husband is in good hands.

Review from John G (Resident / Service User) published on 18 May 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I have been going to The Mills Meadow Club for a few weeks now and find the staff to be really helpful and make my day very productive and full of fun and laughter. They are always smiling and nothing is too much trouble for them. We have an excellent three-course meal and many teas and coffees, as well as biscuits and cakes which are really delicious. It gives me a chance to meet others who have similar problems to me. It also gives my wife the opportunity to visit family and friends which, for her, is a lifeline and very helpful for her as well. I will certainly continue going.

It was the highlight of my career to be named manager of the Mills Meadow Club and I’m determined to make it a happy, inviting place for local older people to meet. We treat everyone as an individual and take the time to finding out what they like to do and organise enjoyable activities to suit everyone.

Our day club is a great way for older people living independently to get together and enjoy meaningful activities for as long as they wish. At the Mills Meadow Club we’re all about making people smile, supporting them to have fun, and ensuring that they always go home having had a fulfilling day.
