Objectives

Age UK Knaresborough & District exists to provide high quality sustainable services and direct support for older people, which is personalised and responsive to the changing needs of an ageing population and enables informed choice for the service users.

Activities

Age UK Knaresborough & District provides health and social care and support for older people in order that they may continue to remain living as independently as possible in their own homes and prevent avoidable hospital admission or higher level care being needed, with timely and meaningful multi contact approach support that meets their needs and wishes. We set up and deliver tailored packages (following a comprehensive health and social care assessment) with practical and emotional support and a range of services including Information and Advice with future care planning; Lunch Clubs. Support in the Home and Assisted Bathing in Cliff House as well as a range of shopping and befriending services which all meet individual needs and health and social care planning objectives.
