Resident and Family Council each year, symbolically thank Louis Brier for their engagement with residents and families!
We try to add colour and life at a time when nature tries to take it away.
Resident & Family Council dedicated two colourful Mum plants to the Shalom Garden and 2nd floor balcony, giving thanks for all we have 🙏
