Library & Business Centre

Immerse yourself in your favourite books or authors

If you're a book lover indulge yourself in the village library where you can find a collection of books including fiction, non-fiction and audio-visual material.
Residents can find a selection of novels, autobiographies and general interest topics. Find a quiet place to read, play cards or have an intimate chat with a friend or neighbour.
Some Libraries have a generous selection of novels, autobiographies and a range of general interest topics that are available for you to borrow and enjoy.

Resident volunteers often support the Library to ensure the books and the library are well maintained and looked after.

Make the most of your Retirement Village Business Centre

What on earth would a retiree want with a Business Centre? After all, many of them would have spent their adult lives in an office, so why would they want access to one in retirement?

In fact, many 'retirees' have retired in name only. Many actually continue to work, albeit usually for reduced hours. Some retain an active or even a controlling interest in a business they have built up.

For people like these, a Business Centre is a great idea. To begin with, it means they can get out of the home – a surprising number feel that home with all its distractions is not the place to conduct business and that it's important to maintain a professional atmosphere.

Business Centres often share accommodation with the community centre's library and are simply furnished and maintained by the retirement village. They try to provide access to at least some of the tools of modern business, such as a photocopier, fax machine, a few personal computers, a printer and high-speed internet access.

Even non-business people can make good use of a Business Centre. It's an appropriate place to meet with your financial or legal advisor, for example.
