What does the Laundry Service do?

The service operates across the Milton Keynes area and is for anyone who has a current social care need or requires short term support with their washing and ironing during periods of sickness when additional help is needed.

The service can cater for ad hoc or weekly laundry, it also can offer a twice a week incontinence laundry service.

• The clean ironed laundry will then be professionally packed ready to be returned to you.
• Our driver will deliver your laundry back to you a week after it was collected.
• More than one bag of washing can be sent each week if required. Additional costs may apply.

Please Note
