26.01.2022 This months Mens Club was a display of skills! Run by one of our own ex-professional darts player, we also played some old favourite board games and puzzles. Coincidently today is National Puzzle Day- a day to recognise how exercising our brains with puzzles benefits our mental development- plus everyone loves some healthy competition!

25.01.2022 We received a wonderful thank you from our Trigg Village residents who were very happy with the recent works to their property. Sincere thanks for the work Tim has carried out in edging the garden with pavers. He's done an excellent job in a very short time, we're extremely happy with the end result, the mortar is next to be applied. Thanks for taking such great care of our residents Tim!

24.01.2022 This week we farewell Olive Wright, our CEO. Olive has been at the helm of the Meath ship for the past 13+ years and throughout that time has achieved many milestones for and with the organisation. Her time with Meath Care commenced prior to the opening of the Dr Mary Surveyor Centre. We shut down our outdated Trigg site and moved the residents in to their brand-new state of the art residence. Following the settling of the DMSC, Olive then arranged for the old site at Trigg t...o be developed into the beautiful retirement living villas that occupy the space today. Then, of course came the demolishing of half of the old Meath Care Como site, building the brand-new clubhouse for the Como village residents and the redevelopment and opening of the Michael Lee Centre. Meath Care has come a long way over the past 13 years and it would not have been possible without the drive, dedication and passion from Olive. So Olive, as we say farewell this week, not only do we wish you an amazing, fulfilling retirement but we also thank you for all that you have done for Meath.

22.01.2022 We have another very grateful resident who received this beautiful quilt from the CWA of WA Colleen is a resident at our Dr Mary Surveyor Centre in Kingsley, she was so overwhelmed by the gift. "I just feel so privileged to receive such a beautiful quilt, I'm overwhelmed ~ are you sure it's for me"?... The beautiful quilt is taking pride of place on her bed. We can't thank the ladies of @cwaofwa enough for their kindness, which means so much to our residents.

19.01.2022 We dropped into our new Perry Media Room yesterday at the DMSC to say hi to Joe. He was chatting to his beautiful daughter Carol in Melbourne!

We're happy that our residents have another great space to be able to chat with their families ~ no matter where they are.... A big thanks to Carol for letting us have a picture ~ it was lovely to meet you.
