Mac the miniature therapy horse trotted into Warrigal Wollongong Residential Care Home and into everyone's hearts 🐴💙

We're honoured to have sponsored this special visit, making it our fourth aged care visit with Adorable Pony Parties

The timing couldn't have been more perfect, as the visit coincided with Petronella's remarkable 100th birthday celebration 💙 It was truly touching to witness Mac spark laughter, smiles, and genuine moments of connection among residents and staff alike.

Thank you to Anthony, our General Manager, and Pete and Julianne from our team, who joined us on the day, spending quality time with residents and sharing meaningful conversations along the way.

We’re excited to keep supporting these heartwarming visits and to create even more special moments for aged care communities across the Illawarra.

Today marks the National Day of Mourning, as our country comes together to honour the victims and all those impacted by the Bondi Beach terrorist attack.

Guided by the theme chosen by the Chabad Community in Bondi “Light will win” we reflect in unity, remembrance, and compassion, standing alongside the families, communities, and all who continue to grieve.

All members of the public are encouraged to observe a minute’s silence at 7.01pm AEDT, and to leave a lit candle in their window or on their doorstep in solidarity of the Jewish community and in memory of those whose lives were taken.

Saying goodbye can be both meaningful and kind to the earth. 🌱

Green funerals typically include environmentally sustainable coffins and offer families an eco-friendly way to honour loved ones.

Every service can be carefully personalised to reflect beliefs, values, and wishes, creating a ceremony that truly celebrates a life in the most heartfelt and meaningful way.
