Day Services Transformation

The Day Services Transformation programme aims to create a modern, flexible and cost-effective service that meets the needs of all service users. To do this we will:

  • invest £4m to improve the quality of our day service buildings, to create a network of modern, multi-purpose centres that offer a pleasant environment, appealing to older people and those with learning and physical disabilities alike
  • look to open up our own buildings for community groups where this doesn't affect day services and is cost effective
  • look to reduce the costs of external day service providers and make better use of private providers where appropriate
  • make our charging fairer to all and ensure we cover costs.
