Glenwood Home's sheltered Courtyard needs improvements
Glenwood Home in Timaru, is home to 42 residents who are frail and elderly, some at hospital level of care. Elderly folk need a dose of sunshine every day and we wish to make our courtyard a place of choice for our residents. We plan some shade sails, some raised gardens, a few activities like a basketball hoop and badminton set etc. The decking needs replacing as it gets mossy in the winter and is unsafe. In short we will be making this a great and interesting outdoors area that is safe for our residents. We intend to maximise this space and maximise its use.
Share your New Zealand music memories...
It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.
Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.
In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.
