Pioneering a new way of living

The people who live in Ryman villages remain true to themselves, whether that’s continuing with their passion, making the most of every minute, challenging themselves to learn something new, or surrounding themselves with people who like to have fun.

The people who live in Ryman villages remain true to themselves, whether that’s continuing with their passion, making the most of every minute, challenging themselves to learn something new, or surrounding themselves with people who like to have fun.
As Lynette, a resident at Edmund Hilary village, says “A lot of people still believe that you're going to a rest home. They don't know the concept of a retirement village. You go there, it's beautiful. You've got facilities. You've got activities. And you don't stop living.”
Retirement is a chapter of life that’s filled with possibility. Choose the lifestyle you want to live and proudly embrace every opportunity. It’s what Ryman residents do.

If you are doing a Spring cut back in your garden and are able to spare some cuttings for us we would love them to give us a bit of a start! Looking for anything that will grow well from a cutting up here - maybe Lavender, Rosemary, Agaves, geraniums, anything considered! ps, I have indoor spider plants that I would be happy to swap for cuttings :-)

Christian Dental Services

Kim from Silverdale

There is an increasing gap between those who can afford dental work and those who simply cannot and sadly, this later group is increasing at an alarming rate. Do you know that the high cost of dental services is leading many people to extract their own painful teeth using just garage pliers? … View moreThere is an increasing gap between those who can afford dental work and those who simply cannot and sadly, this later group is increasing at an alarming rate. Do you know that the high cost of dental services is leading many people to extract their own painful teeth using just garage pliers? That’s enough to make anyone wince!
Could it be within your power to make a wonderful difference to those in need?
At Christian Dental Services, it’s our vision to offer affordable dental care to those who need it most, with minimal fees and low overheads. We are not reliant on fundraising or Government funding and our aim is affordability across the whole treatment (not just X-rays and examinations).
We are seeking trained dentists, hygienists and assistants as well as those all-important front desk staff to help get these services to those in need. Even just a few hours per week would make a massive difference.
We would love to have you join us to support this work of the Lord.

Please call David Zimmerman on +64 27 523 0232 to find out more or send us an email:-
