Our team at Chandler Court will support your loved one to continue to do the things they love, enjoying an experience that’s as individual as they are. We'll get to know your loved one's personality and life story, their passions and interests. That way we can be sure we’re making each day the best it can be, whether it’s rediscovering an old pastime, making new friends or finding a sense of purpose by helping around the home. If you like to sit and watch the world go by over a cup of coffee and home baked cake, the coffee shop is likely to be a big hit. At the heart of the home, it is a superb place to catch up with your neighbours, creating the sense of a mini-outing, without leaving the home. |
