Respite care with a difference
Date: Thursday, February 14th 2013
Categories: All Leicestershire Activities & Events Groups & Forums
Cafe Saturday was set up last year to provide a safe, relaxed, low cost and accessible place where disabled people, older people and people with learning disabilities can meet, with support staff on hand.
It's a joint project between mosaic:shaping disability services, Just Services and Self Advocacy in Action and is on every Saturday from 1.30pm to 5pm at mosaic:shaping disability services, 2 Oak Spinney Park, Ratby Lane, Leicester Forest East, LE3 3AW.
The cafe is open to people of all ages and includes drinks, light refreshments, magazines and papers to read, music and table games. There are also raffles and items for sale.
With support staff on hand, the Cafe offers respite care, so carers can take a break, but people are welcome to bring their carers free of charge, if they need personal care for example.
The cafe costs £5 for the whole afternoon, including refreshments and activities.
You're welcome to go along at anytime, you don't have to go every Saturday or stay for the whole afternoon.
