Henry Kendall Garden Walk October 2020 - Tuesday 27 October 2020 at 2PM

This month's walk we will head from the office through the meadows over to stage 11 up the hill past the Serviced Apartments to stage 12. We will look at parts of stage 12 and then head over to stage 10 heading down all the way back to the croquet green where we will finish.

There will be lots of good garden areas and some bush parts to see. The Walk has some uphill parts but we will take it at a leisurely pace, this walk will be suitable for scooters.

There will be lots to see and talk about, Lets walk, talk gardens & plants and maybe some village history.

Well Done to our lovely craft ladies!!! Creating special blankets for patients living with dementia that help them to keep calm using various sensory items. A very important cause that will make a huge improvement to the patients, well done to all the Resident crafties that participated to this project.

WELCOME DISTRACTION | They are vibrant, sit snugly over a seated patient’s lap and are specially fitted with a large pocket which house a range of sensory surprises like ribbons, strips of felt, tassels and more.

These special blankets are designed to keep agitated patients living with dementia calm and their hands busy, so they stay away from intravenous lines, drains and drips while they have important treatment.

They are beautiful creations and work wonders, with patients often spending their treatment time observing the workmanship. They are also good conversation starters, with carers and visitors often keen to sit and chat about the blankets with patients.

They are distributed to a number of wards across our District thanks to an army of hard working and talented volunteers from all over the Central Coast.

Thank you to The Umina Knitters, The Craft Ladies, Central Coast Sensory Mats, Dolores Byrne, June Barton, Robyn Pavitt and Bev Waters for your amazing support!

Lendlease has launched a new app for Residents which has articles & information which are designed for you! Read stories of Residents from Villages around Australia, get articles on health & wellbeing and much more.

One of the most useful tools on this app is a section called “Village News” this will be updated regularly with happenings in the village such as any road detours in place, if there are any urgent updates such as water outages or planned works that will affect services in the village.

This is a great tool to get information when you want it and stay connected to Family and friends.

If you have any questions or need any assistance downloading or using the App please call the office on 4223 2722
