Prestige accommodation and fine<br />
living<br />
Established in 1985 the Golden Healthcare<br />
Group is now one of New Zealand’s largest<br />
privately owned healthcare businesses. We<br />
recognise the changing nature of retirement<br />
villages with the move towards established<br />
safe and secure communities and the need<br />
for on-site expanded facilities.<br />
“In our experience, many people are<br />
choosing to move into accommodations such<br />
as Lady Wigram because they recognise the<br />
benefits of the ease of living and it allows<br />
them greater freedom and more social<br />
interaction.”<br />
