Day Care
At Coast Care Group, our Day Care service gives people the opportunity to enjoy a sociable and supportive day within one of our care homes, while continuing to live at home.
People can enjoy companionship, activities, meals and support from our experienced teams in a safe and friendly environment.
Whether someone would benefit from more company during the week, a change of routine or additional support while family carers manage other commitments, our team is here to help make each day positive and enjoyable.
Supporting people to enjoy meaningful days
Day Care provides daytime support, companionship and activities for people who would benefit from spending time in a care home environment while continuing to live at home. We can provide pick-up and drop-off for residents each day, and our wheelchair-accessible vehicles mean we can support Day Care clients with different physical abilities.
For some people, Day Care provides a valuable opportunity to meet others, maintain a routine and enjoy experiences that may not be possible at home. For families, it provides reassurance that their loved one is spending time in a welcoming environment with support from an experienced team.
With four care homes across Bexhill and St Leonards, Coast Care Group provides welcoming settings where people can enjoy companionship, activities, outings and support from teams who take the time to understand their individual needs.
A good day is about more than care alone. It is about conversation, connection, encouragement and having opportunities to enjoy the things that bring meaning and enjoyment.
A day filled with companionship, activities and support
Day Care allows people to spend time at one of Coast Care Group’s homes during the day, enjoying support, companionship and activities while continuing to live in their own home.

A day at Coast Care Group may include:
- Spending time with others and enjoying conversation
- Taking part in activities and group sessions
- Enjoying freshly prepared meals and refreshments
- Joining outings and shared experiences where suitable
- Receiving support from experienced care teams
- Maintaining personal interests and routines
Every person is different, which is why we take time to understand what matters to each individual and create an experience that feels comfortable and enjoyable.
