Enliven Positive Ageing Community Services for Older People
Positive ageing is also about maintaining relationships with family and friends and maintaining a sense of contribution and satisfaction in what you do. We believe that feeling supported and secure and being as active and involved as possible are very important for positive ageing.
Enliven service not only takes your day to day practical needs into consideration, but also the emotional support and encouragement that can make all the difference.
One advantage of the service is that it offers personally tailored programmes based on your changing needs. The programmes are aimed at helping you to build strength and resilience, and to achieve your goals - based on what is important to you.
