A day centre is a facility that provides structured daytime programmes and support services for individuals with various needs, including learning disabilities, physical disabilities, or mental health conditions. The primary purpose of a day centre is to offer a safe and inclusive environment where individuals can engage in social, recreational, and therapeutic activities while receiving necessary support and supervision.
