I've been at Greenacres for 12 months and so far, I have had a smooth transition into the service. The staff here are great and have your interest at heart, and if you need anything they will come to your aid. There are lots of different activities and groups to join and I have joined a few. My favourite group is the current affairs group which is a great space to speak about a current topic which I have a deep interest in.
