Daily Activities There are plenty of daily activities at Halstead Day Centre, all aiming to keep members active whilst offering a chance to socialise. Special Events As well as the daily activities within the centre we also help our members engage in special and seasonal events throughout the year. Independent Living We offer our members a range of services to help with daily activities such as shopping and the opportunity to bathe with dignity.

Welcome to Halstead Day Centre, providing independent living for people over 60 who are isolated

We offer a friendly environment for people to socialise and be included in a range of low intensity services that reduce isolation and encourage activities that promote, physical, mental and emotional well-being while maintaining a degree of independence in their own home for longer.  Our catchment area is Halstead and approximately 16 surrounding villages.

Our services include transport, daily movement to music classes, shopping, bathing, board & card games, debates, speakers, bingo, craft and a two course lunch and beverages during the day.

The Day Centre also provides twice yearly trips to our own beach hut in Brightlingsea.
