Leighton Buzzard Day Centre for older people review
Following extensive mapping and engagement and activities with Leighton Buzzard Day Centre service customers, we developed a proposal for a new enhanced day service.
At its meeting on 11 October 2022, our Executive approved a proposal to implement a new day centre model as an alternative to Leighton Buzzard Day Centre and subsequently close the current centre to relocate the service to the care home that is being built on the Hockliffe Road site, known as Marigold House.
People who use the service were supported to move to the new service co-located at Marigold House, opening on Monday 10 February 2025.
Marigold House
Marigold House is a new care home in Leighton Buzzard. The day service being located here offers a homelier and community-based environment, access to outside garden space, enables a full range of care and support needs, opportunity to join a wide variety of activities and improved Changing Places toilet.
