Brockburn Older People's Service, is a service in Glasgow South which provides support to people over 65, within their own homes. Our staff are available within the complex 24 hours per day. The service is based within a very sheltered complex in Pollok, Glasgow.

At Brockburn Older People's service, we believe that everyone we support is unique but that everyone shares similar universal needs.

We support people with all aspects of their daily living. This could be support with paying bills, doing the laundry, cleaning your house, personal care, going shopping, taking your medication and preparing meals.

We also support people in a person-centred manner, which means that your support will be developed with your involvement, and at what times and days suit you best.

We want to promote the people we support being part of their community and accessing activities within Brockburn Very Sheltered Accommodation.

We also believe that good family relationships and friendships can help people feel better about themselves and are a positive element of wellbeing.

We believe the support we can provide and by accessing other services, we can assist people with staying in their own home for as long as possible.
