Activities & Amenities at Chartwell Harwood in Ajax

You can choose from a full and engaging roster of optional activities and amenities at Chartwell Harwood. All of our life enrichment experiences promote the six dimensions of wellness—physical, social, emotional, intellectual, spiritual, and vocational. What kind of a day would you like today? Perhaps you’ll curl up with a good book in our cozy library and puzzle room. Or break a sweat in an exercise class which takes place in our well-equipped fitness room. There is always a challenging brain games class, or maybe you would prefer to visit a friend using our courtesy van. Later on, you may look forward to a cocktail or mocktail at Happy Hour and remember to board our accessible bus tomorrow to cheer on the Blue Jays or applaud a show at the theatre.
