Help at Home Scheme/ Dingemans Centre |
01903 879916 |
This scheme, which initially covers the Steyning and Horsham Town
area, provides domestic help for older people, such as hoovering,
dusting, washing floors, laundry, ironing, changing bed clothes,
shopping and pension collection. It is aimed at people aged 60 and
over whose personal care needs are met by informal carers, who do
not have the ability to undertake practical tasks as well.
Each persona will be entitled to a maximum of 2 hours help a week.
Visits are between the hours of 9am - 5.30pm. A small subsidised
charge is made, which is reduced for those on income support.
Can cater for people with physical and sensory disabilities and
those with mild to moderate communication and learning difficulties.
