Age Concern Isle of Man is pleased to announce that it is able to offer an additional 18 Day Care places on two extra days per week from January 2012. This provision will operate in exactly the same way as our current Day Centre partnership with the Department of Social Care. The Minister for Social Care Chris Robertshaw MHK said: “I welcome this initiative, which will enable many more older people in our community to engage in valuable activities with others and so helping to improve their quality of life. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Age Concern Isle of Man and Isle of Man Residential Homes (2009) for providing this valuable service.” Age Concern Isle of Man is immensely grateful for the financial support of Isle of Man Residential Homes (2009) whose generosity has made this initiative possible. The new arrangements will be as follows: MONDAYS – Meadow View in Onchan. In the first instance priority will be given to clients in the Laxey and Baldrine areas. TUESDAYS – Cummal Mooar in Ramsey. In the first instance priority will be given to clients in the Maughold, Dhoon and Glen Mona areas.
