A caring community is one that’s there for us in good times, and in our times of need. That’s the community Hoko and Glenda found at Diana Isaac Retirement Village in Christchurch.

“The staff are absolutely amazing,” explains Glenda. “They go out of their way to speak to you, to make sure you’re ok.”
Hoko and Glenda feel very fortunate for the support they received when Hoko experienced some health issues. It wasn’t just the village staff who provided support, the whole community rallied around them.
“When I got sick the community itself looked after me,” Hoko explains.
“I can’t speak highly enough of the staff here,” Glenda says.

I certainly do not want any of my neighbours to go through the same experience as Wilhelmina.

Please be warned if you are a customer of Simon's Pharmacy in Tawa.

There's a huge display truck parked there to advertise the work of the transmission gully.

If you park on either side of that truck, chances are the Security Worker who opens the doors of the truck will just open the huge doors and let them fly. and they will damage your car..
And you will have no one to complain to as the Security worker will shrug his shoulders and say " it is the wind."

Preston Lyons (pictured left) was the 2019 Tawa RYLA representative and had this to say: “The theme of RYLA 2019 was to ‘unleash your leadership potential’. RYLA certainly achieved that, and so much more. It was an intense, challenging, and incredibly rewarding journey of growth, teamwork, and leadership. I have innumerable highlights and memories, each of which empowered me to become a better version of myself.”
