We welcome Liz to Roseneath

Heritage Lifecare from Roseneath Lifecare & Village

Liz took over as Manager of Roseneath Lifecare & Village in May 2022. It was like a homecoming for Liz as she believes she was born just up the road. “From the first day I entered the front door it felt like home,” she says.

Liz’s family association with the Wairarapa goes back to her great-great-great-great-grandfather, Henry Burling, who was the first person to enter the Wairarapa by foot from Wellington. Her early years were on a farm at the Taratahi Training Centre, where her dad worked, and then on a farm east of Eketahuna.

Prior to Liz’s role at Roseneath, she had been a Business Operations Manager in the public sector and had managed several other retirement facilities. She welcomed the opportunity to come back into elder care using her people and management skills.

Liz says, “We have very experienced staff who truly care for our resident’s wellbeing, both in the Care Home and Independent Villas.”

She particularly enjoys the very special homely and friendly atmosphere at Roseneath. “I love the difference I can make to a residents’ life; listening to their stories; seeing the pleasure they get in joining in with recreational activities; and the special care received by our staff. I’m lucky to be leading a team of brilliant, caring staff to ensure that every resident has ‘A Better Everyday’.”

Another fantastic curry.

Dean from Masterton District

Another fantastic $13 lunch curry, rice and naan from Sultan Boofiya Kitchen which is just a little down and opposite Moore Wilson's.

Also comes with a can of drink, but I usually leave that as the deal is already really good value and quality, I want the owners to make a little bit more on them.

My go-to is at the moment Chicken Boona.

Rich tomato and onion sauce with a mild kick. ( If too hot, add a little cream to the curry )

Only a slight heat kick in my opinion.

I usually have half for lunch and the rest for dinner.

I do thoroughly recommend them and encourage you to visit.

My other favorites are lamb Rogan josh and mango chicken.

As I said, I have half for lunch and the other half for dinner.

It's fine microwaved a couple of minute and one minute for the naan.

I mean, you are paying close to and over $13 in the supermarket for a frozen one which aren't a patch of these freshly made ones.

Their chicken wings are good as are their Seekh kebab.
