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.
Sonia Teixeira
I am thrilled to be part of the team at ‘Hazel Lodge’ and to use the large range of experience I have from within the care sector.
As the Activities co-ordinator I have a real passion for promoting individual well-being and life enrichment and work closely with residents and their families, planning activities and events that they would like to participate in.

Life at Hazel Lodge Care Home
Never too late to Learn
We love being able to offer our residents new experiences, last week was no exception when they were given the chance to try their hand at playing the Ukulele.
Thank you to Sally who came along to give our budding George Formby fans some private tuition and a fun afternoon.
Friends Altogether in Rother
We love being able to support our local community groups and when Chris from FAIR asked if we could help with a cake for an event we jumped at the chance . Friends Altogether in Rother is run by volunteers and it was a great way for us to say Thank you for all the amazing work they do .
Ladies Day
What better way to celebrate Ladies day than to pop open the bubbly and celebrate in style . The day started with our ladies enjoying a pamper session in the hair salon , followed by a lovely 3 course lunch prepared by our hospitality team. With the sun shining residents gathered on the patio looking very fancy in their fascinators to enjoy a chilled glass of fizz . What a perfect way to spend the day
Easter Celebrations
It was smiles all round over the Easter celebrations .With the home welcoming visitors in for a Hot Cross Bun , resident Ambassador Godfrey took the opportunity to visit our local fire station delivering Chocolate eggs for the crew .Maisie was the lucky winner of the Hazel Lodge Bunny Hunt in Battle where she managed to find all 12 bunnies that were hiding around the town and Sue had the winning ticket for the Easter Raffle with proceeds of £87 being donated to Battle Foodbank.
Everyone Wants a Cuddle
So the spring weather may have abandoned us yet again.... but everyone was feeling all warm and fuzzy when Willow and Holly came to visit . The lambs who are both 2 weeks old were brought in by Beck from Pet Pals Therapy along with some very fluffy Easter chicks .
Who cares about the weather when you can cuddle up indoors with these babies.
Sping has Sprung
What a difference a little sunshine makes !
Today the weather has been glorious and everyone (including Tia our visiting therapy dog ) made the most of it by heading outside into the Hazel Lodge gardens.
It was lovely to watch friends wandering around the flower beds and sitting chatting on the patio . It certainly looks like Spring has finally sprung .
