Turning of the Sod at Catholic Homes Belmont Site
On Wednesday, the Official Turning of the Sod Ceremony was held at our new Catholic Homes Belmont site. The event was attended by local dignitaries, representatives from Catholic Homes, Perkins Builders and T&Z Architects.
The new residence on Lapage Street Belmont will feature 96 beds over three levels: a ground floor 16-bed memory support unit with adjoining outdoor sensory gardens and courtyards; and a day therapy centre and garden for home care package clients living in their own homes. The first and second floor levels comprise two wings of 20 beds each.
The dedicated landscaped garden has been specifically designed for residents living with dementia so people can gather with families to enjoy the outdoors in an attractive, secure space. Other amenities include a hairdressing salon; training and meeting rooms; large light filled courtyards and balconies; and a chapel and reflection space.
Designed by T&Z Architects, the new residence is planned for completion in April 2023.
