Finding a safe, stimulating place for a loved one to spend the day — while you get a proper break — is one of the most common things carers ask us for. Crossroads Clubs, run by Crossroads Care Kent in Wateringbury, Tonbridge, and Hawkhurst, do exactly that, combining structured activities with genuine respite for carers.
Our Clubs
Crossroads Clubs are social day clubs for people with a variety of health needs. We run two types of session across Kent, each designed for a slightly different need.
Dementia Hub Clubs
These sessions are suitable for people living with mild to moderate dementia, using activities based on Cognitive Stimulation Therapy (CST) — the only non-drug intervention recommended by NICE for dementia care. CST-based activities help maintain cognitive function, support memory, and improve overall wellbeing.
- Mondays: Crossroads Office, Wateringbury, ME18 5NS, 10:00–15:00
- Wednesdays: Six in One Club, Tonbridge, TN10 3HH, 10:00–15:00
Hub Clubs (Social Support)
These sessions offer a relaxed social club environment for people with a wide range of health needs, with structured activities that encourage social interaction and mental stimulation.
- Tuesdays: Bowles Lodge, Hawkhurst, TN18 4HT, 10:00–15:00
- Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays: Wateringbury, ME18 5NS, 10:00–15:00
What's Included
Every Crossroads Clubs session includes:
- Engaging activities — music, quizzes, games, and puzzles
- A light lunch and refreshments throughout the day
- A safe, supportive, and friendly small-group environment
- Trained, DBS-checked staff on hand throughout
Why Families Choose Crossroads Clubs
- Small groups — each session is limited to 12 participants, so everyone gets to know each other and feels included
- Genuine respite — while your loved one is engaged in meaningful activities, you get real time to rest, run errands, or simply switch off
- Consistency — the same familiar faces and settings each week, in Wateringbury, Tonbridge, or Hawkhurst
- A session to suit different needs — from general social support to CST-based sessions suitable for mild dementia
Who Can Attend?
Crossroads Clubs welcome people with a wide range of health needs, including physical disabilities and age-related conditions, alongside the CST-based sessions suitable for people with mild to moderate dementia. You don't need a formal care package or diagnosis to get in touch and ask which session would suit your loved one.
