Christmas Market
Aranui Handiscope are holding their Christmas Market this Friday 30th Nov at 4 - 7 pm. This is being held at St Ambrose Church 309 Breezes Rd. Aranui Handiscope hold this market as it helps our members sell their awesome crafts they make. We like to empower our members to be creative and to restart their crafts that they may have stopped. It has helped many to be more proactive and it has enabled many to get more into the community. So us holding the market is a way we can help our members and volunteers to bring you the super bargains in the crafts being sold. So pop on down and see us on Friday. If wet we will still be holding our market inside the cafe hall / church. so plenty of room :-) warm wishes Julie Williams - supervisor

Respite care when you need it
From rehabilitation after a hospital stay, to a little extra support, whether it’s for a few nights or a few weeks - respite care provides temporary care in a range of circumstances.
If you still live in your own home, a short stay at one of our care centres could be a welcome break from your usual routine.
Our respite care is offered at rest home-level care, hospital and specialist dementia care. In some circumstances, we may be able to offer you respite care in a serviced apartment.
If you've been thinking about moving to a Ryman care centre, spending time with us in respite care is a great way for you to experience the lifestyle in our villages before making your decision.
