About

The Allan Gardiner Centre is the base of the Andover and surrounding areas Community Mental Health Team for Older People. The team aims to provide comprehensive, specialist help and support to people usually over the age of 65 with Mental health needs and to provide advice and support to their relatives and carers.

Opening times

9am - 5pm, Monday - Friday

Access

Team base has disability access and facilities.

Target group

Service users referred by their GP and their relatives and carers.

Referral method

The service user is referred to our team by their GP. All service users receiving ongoing support from the team will be asked whether there is someone that they wish to involve in their treatment and care. We would encourage this, particularly if there is a family member or friend who gives a lot of support generally or when the service user is unwell. This person would ordinarily be described as the carer but this does not mean that they live with the service user or even see them every day.
