Bowes House Hailsham hosts monthly stroke support group

Friday, 4 July 2025 at 15:18

A care home in Hailsham is welcoming people to its support group designed for people whose lives have been affected by a stroke.

Care UK’s Bowes House, on Battle Road, recently invited the local community to its Stroke Friendship Café, an event the home hosts monthly.

It is a safe space designed for people who have had or know someone affected by a stroke to come together in a relaxed and friendly environment to share stories, seek support and make new friends.

During the session, Kim Golding, from the Stroke Association, and the Bowes House team were on hand to support the group, sharing information, resources, and offering a listening ear for those who attended.

Kim and the Bowes House team host the Stroke Friendship Café on the second Wednesday of each month from 2pm-3.30pm, with the next one set for Wednesday 9th July, and complimentary refreshments will also be provided for guests.
