Milton Keynes City Council announces expansion of popular laundry service
Milton Keynes City Council has announced the expansion of its popular laundry service, in a bid to support more residents.
The service was previously focused on older residents but is now being made available to people of any age who receive support from adult social care.
The council says the move is designed to help more people stay independent at home, particularly those recovering from illnesses or managing long-term health conditions.
The service collects, cleans and returns laundry to residents’ homes, and offers flexible options including one-off collections and weekly services.
Residents can have clothing, bedding and items such as blankets and duvets returned within a week, with standard laundry bags priced under £20.
Cabinet member for adults, health, community and housing at Milton Keynes City Council Donna Fuller said: “This is a practical service that can make a big difference to people’s day-to-day lives.
“By opening this up to more residents, we’re helping more people stay independent and comfortable at home.
“If you think you or someone you know could benefit, please do get in touch.”
Residents who think they could benefit, or who care for someone who might be eligible, should email [email protected].
