There are also lots of shared spaces, including a domestic style kitchen and dining room, lounges, gardens and courtyards that residents and their visitors use to socialise, do activities and host visitors.
But Kandahar Court is more than bricks and mortar; it’s a place of connection, compassion and understanding.
The Kandahar Court team understands the experience of dementia can be distressing, so staff are specially trained to support you and your family.
We embrace Enliven’s philosophy of care. We take every opportunity to make sure residents have companionship, spontaneity, meaningful activity, a sense of purpose and fun in their lives.

We’ll support you and your family and friends to remain connected.
Our practical approach to dementia care, based on Dementia Care International’s unique Spark of Life philosophy, supports us to interact with residents in a way that keeps them connected to the world around them.
