‘Pet Therapy’ – a treasured part of our Lifestyle program. 🐶
Each visit brings a delightful range of furry friends who offer more than just cuddles – they bring comfort, companionship, and joy.
These moments spark meaningful conversations, unlock fond memories, and fill our spaces with laughter and light.
It is in these small but powerful interactions that we find true connection – and these are the moments we deeply cherish and love to capture. 💛

Celebrating Our Volunteers – The Heart of Our Community 💙

During National Volunteer Week, we proudly honoured the incredible individuals who give so generously of their time and spirit to Lutheran Homes Barossa.

This year’s theme, “Something for Everyone – Connecting Communities,” beautifully captures the impact our volunteers have every single day. Their kindness, compassion, and commitment help create a stronger, more connected home for all.

To show our appreciation, we hosted a special morning tea on Wednesday, bringing together our volunteers to celebrate their shared passion for making a difference. It was a heartwarming occasion filled with connection, gratitude, and community spirit.
A heartfelt thank you to Kangaroo Island Olives for their generous contribution of premium olive oil — gifted to our volunteers as a small token of thanks for the big difference they make.

To all our volunteers: thank you! Your contributions help us connect, care, and thrive. 🌟
