What an amazing week of celebrations it has been for ! We held satellite events across three Community Care organisations to show our appreciation for everyone working in the sector. Staff and guests were treated to delicious food and carnival games, and of course, face time with colleagues.

Today, we had the last satellite event at Society for the Aged Sick, which included the much-awaited finals of Community Care Got Talent. A big congratulations to the winners from Society for the Aged Sick and St. Andrew's Nursing Home (Queenstown)! 👏 And kudos to all the participants for the amazing performances!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined in the fun and made the events a success, and our hosts for making this year’s celebrations unforgettable!
