A Trip to the Beach for Vasey RSL Care Brighton Residents
Residents from Vasey RSL Care Brighton East had an outing on their minibus to their local beach recently.
“Aren’t we lucky to live by the bay?” said Lifestyle Coordinator Leanne.
Residents enjoyed afternoon tea with a million dollar view across the bay with the city in the distance.
Bunnings helps Vasey RSL Care Brighton East
We’d like to say thank you to Oakleigh Bunnings for some very welcome donations for our courtyard gardens at our Brighton East aged care home.
Last year, they generously donated succulents, herbs and veggies for our raised garden beds in our Castlefield Unit (which we are pleased to say are doing really well).
This year, we asked for their recommendations for the shady Finchal Unit Courtyard and they came up with fuchsias.
As well as the plants, they also donated hats, a hat rack and umbrellas, so no matter what the weather, residents can get outdoors and enjoy some fresh air in the courtyard.
Pictured here are resident Ruth and Oakleigh Bunnings Activities Coordinator, Dan, who was in it boots and all.
“It’s now up to us to keep it watered and weed-free,” says Lifestyle Coordinator, Rosie.
“Challenge accepted!” she adds.
