Our day programmes at Eldernet Showcase offer older people a vibrant, supportive, and engaging place to spend the day while enjoying companionship, structured activities, and gentle care. Designed for those living at home who would benefit from social connection, stimulation, and supervised support, our programme provides a warm, welcoming environment where every person feels included, valued, and respected.

From the moment participants arrive, they’re greeted by friendly staff who take time to understand their interests, routines, and wellbeing needs. Our goal is to create a day that feels meaningful, enjoyable, and tailored—not simply “scheduled.” Each person can take part in a variety of activities, including crafts, music, gentle exercise, games, gardening, baking, cultural celebrations, and quiet relaxation sessions. Activities are thoughtfully designed to support memory, mobility, creativity, confidence, and overall emotional wellbeing.

Shared morning tea and a nutritious lunch are provided, giving participants the chance to enjoy conversation and connection with others. For many, these social moments are the highlight of the day, helping reduce feelings of isolation and boosting mood.

Our team is present throughout the day to provide attentive support with personal care, mobility, medication prompts, and general wellbeing monitoring. Families appreciate knowing their loved one is safe, engaged, and supported in a structured environment that balances independence with gentle assistance.

Day programmes at Eldernet Showcase also offer important respite for family carers, giving them a reliable break while ensuring their loved one enjoys meaningful time with others. Whether attending once a week or several times, participants often tell us they look forward to their day, the friendships they form, and the sense of belonging they feel.

Above all, our day programmes are about connection, purpose, and joy. At Eldernet Showcase, we provide a place where people can be themselves, try new things, and enjoy enriching days in a caring community.
