Living Villages are one of our caro Bowl Sponsors for this upcoming season :

Confused by ORAs, DMFs and all the retirement village jargon?

Wondering whether a village will support you all the way if you ever need care in the future?

Do you have lots of questions and just want honest, no-nonsense answers?

Moving to a retirement village can feel overwhelming, with so many questions to ask and so many different people to talk to.

That’s why Remuera Gardens is bringing all the experts together in one place, making the process easier and helping you find the answers you need in one afternoon.

Join them on Saturday 20th June at 57 Richard Farrell Avenue for a Design Your Next Chapter seminar — a relaxed opportunity to speak with a financial adviser, lawyer, downsizing and moving specialists, interior designer, their village and care teams, plus local Remuera businesses that can help make life a little easier.

Please feel free to bring your family along too, so they can have all their questions answered as well.
