We also offer professional courses and courses for small businesses.
Care information
Qube provides web-based, care information network. Our easy to use on-line database has links to hundreds of local and national charities and organisations, providing support to hundreds of individuals.
‘Tuesday Club’
Tuesday Club offers a weekly activities and friendship club open to anyone and especially those who feel isolated or struggle to meet new people. Fun activities include crafts, Boccia and quizzes, and there’s always tea and cake!
Shop-mobility and wheelchair hire service
Qube helps local people to stay independent and on the move by offering a variety of electric scooters and wheelchairs for hire on a day/half day basis or long term lease.
All our services are supported by our fabulous volunteers, without whom we could not continue to operate.
Qube’s services and activities assist, inform and foster the skills and aspirations of the community and respond to people’s needs.
