Kandahar Court offers wonderful companionship in a peaceful, comfortable environment. We maintain an interesting and varied recreation programme which includes regular outings and close contact with community groups, including the local Alzheimer's Association.

| Eden Alternative- a philosophy of care
We have adopted the Eden Alternative at Kandahar Court, which means we work to create vibrant living and work environments for our residents. We encourage residents to maintain their own routines and continue with hobbies and interests. Residents' pets, the presence of children, plenty of plants and gardens and a high level of local community involvement is a part of our Homes' everyday life. |
