A lifeline for the elderly and their families

On September 2nd 1989 the Day Centre was opened as a meeting place for older residents in Over and surrounding villages.

More than 37 years on and the temporary portakabin is now a purpose-built care facility with qualified staff providing a safe and friendly environment for people from all over South Cambridgeshire, many of whom are dependent on our free minibus service to and from the Centre.

We now two free minibus transport routes running, due to demand, that cover Bar Hill, Over, Swavesey, Longstanton, Northstowe, Willingham, Cottenham, Histon, Impington, Girton, Oakington and Rampton.

Our goal is to help our clients remain as independent, socially active and physically mobile as possible, so they can continue to live as contributing members of their local community. We’re also a support for families who need respite from the emotional and/or physically exhausting challenges of caring for a loved one on a daily basis.

To request more information, please call our Care Team on 01954 231807 or complete our enquiry form.

Our care

What's on

My mother, Jean, attends the Over Day Centre on two days per week, sometimes three (if there are events, like craft/art sessions that she wants to attend as an extra). Mum first started attending the Day Centre as I was so worried that she was getting lonely and, as she was not able to drive anymore, was not having an active life. Right from the start the Centre has been marvellous for her.
