Our Activities Team is passionate about what they do and about the local community of which we are a part of. With a weekly activities programme, visiting entertainment, and excursions out of the home, residents soon settle in well to life at Hazelwood Care Home. Through nurturing a warm, welcoming, and friendly environment, we hope to make residents feel our home is truly theirs too.

What’s Local to Hazelwood Care Home?

This county in the southeast has worked hard to acquire the moniker “Garden of England.” We recommend our residents and their visiting guests to visit the local area for plenty of brand new memories that were made to last a lifetime, whether that’s by exploring the various castle grounds and mazes scattered around the countryside, or seasonal fruit picking in the orchards.

Here at Hazelwood Care Home, we always recommend a family stroll through the Weald and Downs, an area dotted with pointy-roofed oast cottages and windmills, making a perfect setting for capturing those beautifully picturesque, sunny mornings. It’s definitely worth a visit!

Alternatively, submerge in 400 years of exploration at the world’s most authentic and whole dockyard from the Age of Sail. Peek through the periscope as you take the helm of the Victorian HMS Gannet, and perch on the open bridge of the Second World War Destroyer HMS Cavalier, visualising yourself on one of her chilly voyages.
