Posted Monday, 20 December by Tierney Augustine. This year has been full of uncertainty but those individuals who stepped up to provide support have made a big difference. So, we wanted to celebrate our amazing residents who have gone above and beyond to help neighbours, friends, and family, and make a positive impact in our communities with our Resident Awards. We were overwhelmed to read all the kind words we received about the amazing residents we have in our communities. It was a hard decision but, ultimately, we chose a winner and a couple of runners up for each category who have all received gift vouchers from us as a big thank you for the difference they make! Take a read of what our winners and runners up have been doing this past year to go above and beyond to help those around them. Elizabeth has been described as one in a million.
