24.01.2022 Beautiful service held today involving our residents to "Remember" #Rememberanceday2020 #agedcare

19.01.2022 It would be easy to look back at the unfolding events of 2020, in particular in relation to Aged Care with both the Royal Commission hearings and the COVID-19 pandemic bringing unprecedented challenges, and imagine that an organisation providing care and services to older Australians might be expected to have gone into their shell, ‘played it safe’, and put a hold on growth and development plans. However, that’s not us at Sawtell Catholic Care. We are continuing to look ahea...d and planning positively for the future. Our recent Link Gardens ground-breaking event was serendipitously held on the thirtieth United Nations International Day of Older Persons, heralding the Decade of Healthy Ageing. The Link Gardens and village hub will provide a space where our residents as well as the wider region can come to connect, enjoy nature and participate in mind,body and spirit enhancing opportunities and events. Sawtell Catholic Care is also mindful of investing in our community by delivering these projects at this time, especially in the context of the economic downturn and the need for local employment activity. On Saturday 14th November we came together to celebrate the completion of our New Release, another SCC investment in Coffs Harbour that will bring new people to the region to retire, and with them added diversity to enrich not only our village life but also the diversity of our broader community. For over twenty five years the inclusive Christian community of of Sawtell Catholic Care and Marian Grove have been a part of the local landscape, proud to be involved and contribute to the wider community of Coffs Harbour. We were happy to welcome many visitors to view this grand addition to their local landscape, and appreciated the time and supportive words of Gurmesh Singh - MP and Deputy Mayor George Cecato, who cut the ceremonial ribbon. By continuing to grow in response to the changing needs of our residents and community, we put hope and faith in the future,ensuring there are safe places for older Australians to find a happier, more secure lifestyle among new friends.This is how 'We Care'. Michael Darragh, CEO Sawtell Catholic Care Big thanks to all the volunteers who helped make the day a success. Thanks to our own Marian Grove Ukulele Band for their first live gig in many months! Special thanks to [email protected] coffee cart for your caffeine and cookies!
