Reverse Movember raises more than $8800
Andrew Pullen flipped the script for Movember: instead of sprouting facial hair to help raise money for men’s health research, he put his signature beard at risk, promising to shave it off if he raised more than $5000. In all, he and his colleagues raised more than $8800, and he found himself in the barber's chair getting a shave.

Respite care when you need it
From rehabilitation after a hospital stay, to a little extra support, whether it’s for a few nights or a few weeks - respite care provides temporary care in a range of circumstances.
If you still live in your own home, a short stay at one of our care centres could be a welcome break from your usual routine.
Our respite care is offered at rest home-level care, hospital and specialist dementia care. In some circumstances, we may be able to offer you respite care in a serviced apartment.
If you've been thinking about moving to a Ryman care centre, spending time with us in respite care is a great way for you to experience the lifestyle in our villages before making your decision.
