Testimonials
| “I would like to express my gratitude for the care and support Evergreen Club has given my mother since she commenced attending April 2016. I would highly recommend this club to any elderly person who is eligible. It is certainly a club where you are made to feel welcome and homely as well as enjoying the company of others. It is reassuring to know that there is a club available like this for others who find themselves in the same position as my mum – being on her own. The organisers do a fantastic job. Mum loved the club and made some very good friends and would chat to one another over the phone and arrange the occasional outing together. Mum always seemed to enjoy the company of the members and the friendly banter with the staff. Mum really enjoyed the activities such as housie, playing bowls, outings to cafes or meal out and the exercise group, and especially through the lockdown where meals were delivered, and contact was made to curb the loneliness. Thanks so much for the Evergreen Club, you made a huge difference to my Mums life and please continue the amazing work you do for the elderly.” “I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sheryn and all team at Evergreen for all your love and support you have given my Aunt each week she attended your group. Sadly, she passed away last Saturday but she said to me three weeks ago "the group has kept her smiling and alive ". Your friendship meant everything to her, and our family are ever so grateful to you all.” Our Dad is going into dementia care next Tuesday. He has thoroughly enjoyed the Fridays he has been able to spend at Evergreen in recent months and our family is grateful for the excellent care provided to him. Michelle has in particular been fabulous. Many thanks and best wishes - your service is just excellent! My mother has been a member of this wonderful club for quite a few years. And until recently she was going twice a week, being picked up by the club's van. Unfortunately at this moment she is in hospital and unlikely to be going home to her own house again. The time and effort that these ladies put into making sure that everyone was welcomed and participated in the activities that they could take part in ,was so heartwarming. Mum always came away feeling so happy and she really enjoyed her days out. Even during all those lockdowns we had, this club never forgot their members. They did home visits with a meal and lots of goodies as well, plus gave their members the personal contact with the little chats that many of them where missing out on. It was something that Mum looked forward too, also not knowing what dress up costumes they would arrive in. It made Mum smile and certainly made her lonely day a very happy one. Without this wonderful club many of their members would not be able to be involved in such comradeship. Thanks to everyone involved in the Evergreen Club for looking after my Mum. I just wanted to say what a great service the Delta Trust provides with the Evergreen Club. It has been so healthy for my mother to get out and mix with other people and have a social outing. She also got a meal, activities and made friends. They gave her lots of relevant information about what was happening in the community which helped her keep in touch with things going on around her. Social isolation was a huge problem for my mum so this service had been a lifeline for getting her active again. Thank you so much. |
