“I like the friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. It’s also nice to have hot meals cooked for me!”
Welcome to St. David’s Bradbury Day Centre
St Davids is a voluntary organisation dedicated to promoting independence and social opportunities for those aged over 65 residing in Midlothian. Our Service Users all have a range of abilities, needs, disabilities or illnesses and come to join us in order to beat social isolation and loneliness.
Referrals
The day service, established in 1988, runs from a converted miner’s cottage in the heart of the community in Newtongrange. Our trained staff and volunteers assist Service Users to get the most out of our activities programme which is centered around enjoyment, companionship, retaining life skills and promoting wellbeing.
The programme of activities we provide runs 7 days per week between 11 a.m. and 2.30 p.m.
We provide morning tea/coffee, lunch and afternoon tea for a small charge.
Transport can be provided for those residing in the transport catchment areas of Newtongrange, Easthouses, Mayfield, Gordebridge, Bonnyrigg and Woodburn. Those living out with the areas we collect are invited to self-travel to the Day Centre with family or alternative transport.
Whilst we receive referrals from local health and social agencies we also encourage “self-referral” from anyone who wishes to join us at St Davids. Applications can be submitted below.
St Davids are registered with the Care Inspectorate. Below you can access our most recent inspection report.
