COATS Crowthorne

What is COATS?

COATS is a charity whose object is to promote the welfare of Senior Citizens within Crowthorne and the surrounding area.
It is a registered charity and is managed by a committee of Trustees.

WHAT DOES COATS DO?

It runs the COATS Centre at Pinewood Avenue, Crowthorne, which provides companionship, lunches, teas, activities, entertainment and services for local older people.

HOW IS THE CENTRE RUN?

The COATS Centre is run by a Manager who acts as a focal point for all the activities held there. The Manager ensures the smooth running of the Centre, co-ordinates training of staff and volunteers and ensures that information goes out promptly to those who seek it. The Charity also employs two Care Assistants, a Cook, Assistant Cook and a Cleaner. Our members of staff are all trained to the highest appropriate levels and are continually updating their skills.

It is important to stress that the Centre also depends on its committed band of volunteers who assist with cooking, serving meals and entertaining.

COATS operates a minibus service within Crowthorne village to transport our less mobile Visitors to and from our Centre.
