Activities at Hazel Lodge Care Home

Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Wow ! What a fantastic, festive afternoon we've had.
Thank you to everyone who came along and supported our Christmas Fayre and helped us raise a fabulous £102 for the Bexhill & Battle Foodbanks 🤩

A Little ray of Sunshine

When it's a bit murky outside it's always nice to bring a bit of sunshine and colour indoors to lift your mood .
Residents from our Chestnut community really enjoyed getting together to do some flower arranging and created some beautiful displays to have in their rooms and around the home.

103rd Birthday Celebrations

 A huge Congratulations to our lovely Pat who recently celebrated her 103rd Birthday at Hazel Lodge .
Pat started her day with a wake up call from Battle's Town Crier who dressed in all his finery announced (very loudly ) warmest Birthday wishes for everyone to hear ! Pat was then presented with some beautiful flowers from our Mayor Cllr Andrew Barton , who spent time chatting and joking with Pat about all the things she's seen over the past 100 odd years .
We were so thrilled to be able to celebrate with this wonderful lady and her family.

Halloween at Hazel

We had a lovely visit from Claverham Community College students and we decided to do some pumpkin carving. 
Residents love having the children around and be able to share their ideas and memories, it is truly remarkable seeing the interaction between different generations. 
Here's the end result, children did beautifully, thank you for the amazing morning. Our residents were surprised with the focus and imagination of the youngsters, well done to all👏
