from donations and contributions to ensure that their elderly have a comfortable space and living environment and are treated with compassion, respect and dignity. A gift box is available at reception for you to drop off any items such as books, colouring
books and kokis, board games, snacks, toiletries or clothing you wish to donate by no later than Friday, 8th December.
