Snow Closure

Due to the current weather conditions, our centre and all of our shops are closed today (January 9th).

You can still contact us by phone on 01902 880 111 or email enquiries@beaconvision.org. Our team will be reaching out directly to members and their families who were due to attend the centre today.

We’d like to say a heartfelt thank you to our carers and facilities teams, who are working incredibly hard to ensure we can continue supporting those requiring care at home today, despite the conditions.

Please take care and stay safe
