๐ World book day fun! ๐
This morning we were joined by some of the lovely children from Joy Lane Primary School. They had all dressed up as their favourite book character and bought the book with them, they each introduced themselves and what book they were from and also read a small amount of their book to the residents. The children and residents then teamed up to play book bingo and a book quiz! We all had such a lovely morning and always love to have the children here โค๏ธ

Our purpose-built care home on Thanet Way in Whitstable opened its doors in January 2019
Whitstable is a popular town known for its rich maritime history, strong arts scene and independent shopping. We have strong links with businesses, community groups, churches and schools.
Harrier Lodge is in a beautiful part of the world. Our care home is close to local shops and a cafรฉ and historic places like Canterbury.
A beautiful home, a unique lifestyle
We get to know every new resident extremely well, understanding the key aspects of their life and personality, the people, places and things that are important to them, as well as their interests and preferences. We then create care and lifestyle plans โ even menus โ that are personalised for them, so that they can spend each day doing the things that they find fulfilling.
Our skilled and experienced team deliver 24-hour nursing and residential care, short term respite care as well as specialist dementia care. We understand how difficult it can be when an older loved one moves into residential care so we are here to support all your family with help, advice and a listening ear throughout your loved oneโs time with us.
