Age UK Lancashire provides a Day Club service across the county for older people.


The service is based in local centres where older adults attend, providing opportunities for older adults to be involved in stimulating activities that enable them to live independently at home by learning or maintaining daily living skills and to remain a part of their local community for as long as possible.


Day Club staff empower individuals and are caring and compassionate, ensuring that service users are safe and have access to a wide range of meaningful activities and support.


Successful applicants will be appointed as a keyworker for a small group of individuals, usually within a day centre environment and via outreach visits in certain circumstances.
