The meeting area is huge! It will seat 100 theatre style, and<br />

can be sectioned off to allow concurrent events. This provides<br />

the Outreach Members a roomy and inviting venue and<br />

provides lots of scope for educational and group workshops.<br />

A small kitchen allows for some light refreshments to be<br />

made on site.<br />

We have three consulting rooms, each a different style<br />

to meet varying needs, a three-bed massage room plus<br />

excellent toilet and bathroom amenities. There are six shared<br />

staff offices housing the various local teams.<br />

The building is really inviting and the decor and fittings all<br />

modern and new. <strong>MSWA</strong> has funded the purchase of the<br />

block and the build; and the building has been nominated for<br />

a Master Builders Award.<br />

Senior Manager Andrea Taylor has played a major role in<br />

the design and project management and Sandra Wallace<br />

(OT Manager) and Liz Stewart (Manager Fern River) have<br />

done an amazing job in sourcing and supervising the fitout<br />

requirements along with Alison O’Sullivan, the physiotherapist<br />

in Bunbury who enjoyed fitting out the new gym. I would like<br />

to thank everyone involved and the local staff who have all<br />

been very supportive throughout.<br />

This provides us with great confidence as we now move<br />

into final planning for the North Metro hub and high support<br />

accommodation which will get under way by mid-year.<br />

MAKEOVER<br />

PAULA KENNEDY<br />

Treendale Gardens is very proud and excited to<br />

announce that the residents communal area has had<br />

a wonderful makeover! We are sure you would agree<br />

that it now looks more modern and homely. It is being<br />

enjoyed and loved by all the residents and staff.<br />

Many hours of planning and hard work went into this<br />

project, with Andrea Taylor, Sue Shapland, Linda Kidd,<br />

and Marta the interior designer, planning to ensure the<br />

area looked as welcoming and comfortable as possible<br />

for all to enjoy.<br />

Since the refurbishment, more residents are spending<br />

time there reading, watching TV together and joining in<br />

the games and other activities.<br />

Kate, Di and Wendy enjoy games and a<br />

coffee morning with Angela our Recreation<br />

Support Worker.<br />
