We have daily drop-ins, across Wokingham Borough at different venues. During the drop-ins we provide
- Information about what’s going on in the local area
- Support with filling in forms (e.g. benefits, booking holidays, courses, etc)
- Reading letters (e.g. doctor’s letter, bills, etc.)
- Social activities, workshops
- Sign posting and referrals
We also have some activities for members to do during the drop-ins.
For more information, and to find where and we are meeting, please call the office or email us.
