MARLOW HOUSE WELCOMES

WELCOME

Welcome to the Marlow House website. We are a community day care centre located in Desborough, Northamptonshire.

We are open from 9am to 4pm, Monday to Friday.

A warm welcome awaits you!

Simply open the door, come on in, and meet some new friends. Where else can you go to relax, chat, enjoy a freshly cooked meal and have some fun in a home-from-home atmosphere? If transport is a problem, we can pick you up in one of our fully accessible vehicles, and then take you home again after a great day out. Marlow House offers a warm, friendly and safe environment, ideal for those who enjoy a varied social life but wish to retain some independence in their own home. As well as great company, smiles and laughter, we offer nutritional, home-cooked meals, a selection of refreshments and access to a wide range of support services, including our in-house assisted bathing facility.

A WORTHY CAUSE

The Vine Community Trust, registered charity 287717, was formed in 1983. Its objective at that time was "the relief of the elderly, sick and disabled and to promote education, training and rehabilitation to the needy people in Desborough, Rothwell and surrounding villages".

Our basic principles have remained the same but we have grown during the last 40 plus years and extended our services with the growing need of the local population and by working in partnership with local authorities who do provide some funding for our charity.

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to improve the quality of life of older and the less fortunate people of varying ages in Rothwell, Desborough and the surrounding villages.

We aim, in everything we do to:

Ensure that older people have real choices
Enable older people to remain active and healthy and to enjoy life
Involve older people in the running of all our activities
Ensure that older people’s contribution to the community is widely recognised and fully realised
Innovate and promote good practice
Develop partnerships with other bodies where feasible and desirable

GET INVOLVED!

There are various ways to get involved by:

+ Volunteering

+ Donating

+ Attending events

+ Providing a legacy in your will

Look through our website to find out all the information you need, or call the office. Better still drop in and have a chat.

Contact Us

Please contact us direct by telephone, email or just pop in for a chat. Should you email us we will reply promptly. If you include your telephone number then we will call you, which we find much easier and more friendly than email.

We are normally open Mon- Fri from 9am to 4pm.
