Later Living Show 2025 – A Wonderful Day at Dorking Halls!

Published: 06/10/2025

On Saturday 4th October 2025, Right at Home proudly hosted the Later Living Show at Dorking Halls – a free community and information event dedicated to helping local residents prepare for later life with confidence, knowledge, and support.

Despite the stormy weather, our amazing Dorking community turned out in force to take part in the day. A huge thank you to everyone who braved the rain to join us! We hope you enjoyed your goody bags, found plenty of useful resources in the information booklets, and took away valuable insights from our exhibitors.

It’s always better to prepare for the future, rather than trying to find advice and support when you’re at your most vulnerable – and that’s exactly what the Later Living Show was all about: bringing people, information, and care together under one roof.

A Massive Thank You to Our Exhibitors

We’re so grateful to all the exhibitors who gave up their Saturday to provide free advice and support to our community. Each organisation played a vital role in helping attendees explore the many aspects of later life planning, care, wellbeing, and independence.

Here’s a full list of our wonderful exhibitors and their websites:

A Wonderful Day of Connection and Community

It was heart-warming to see so many like-minded local businesses interacting, sharing ideas, and learning from one another – all while supporting our wider community. The atmosphere was full of positivity, collaboration, and care.

We had a fantastic range of exhibitors offering a truly wide variety of services – from care and wellbeing, to nutrition, legal advice, art, and more. The show was a perfect reflection of how Dorking’s local network can come together to support people as they plan for the future.

 

Looking Ahead

We’re already looking forward to the next Later Living Show – and we’re confident it will be even bigger and better!

Thank you once again to everyone who came, exhibited, and supported this fantastic community event. Together, we’re making later living something to look forward to.
