(Newcastle Anglican)
Newy 87.8 FM – Anglican Care is celebrating 70 years of service, care and connection across its communities this year.
The organisation began after World War Two as a refuge for the Anglican community and has grown into the trusted aged care ministry of the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle.
For seven decades, Anglican Care says it has provided high-quality support grounded in compassion, dignity and respect.
The Chief Executive Officer of Newcastle Anglican acknowledged the generations of residents, families, staff, volunteers and supporters who have shaped the past 70 years.
"It is our long history, and the work happening within Anglican Care every day, that fills me with great pride and ensures we will continue to provide the care our communities deserve for many years to come," the CEO said.
The organisation highlighted the quiet, human moments at the heart of its story — a resident rediscovering a long-loved hobby, a staff member taking the time to listen, or a family seeing their loved one feel truly at home.
Over the past 70 years, aged care services have expanded, communities have evolved and expectations of care have grown, the organisation said.
Anglican Care says it looks ahead with excitement as it continues to offer care that is not only delivered but shared, so every person feels known, valued and not alone.
