Ryman-Funded Restoration Work Recognised

Jane Winstone Retirement Village

It was a very special weekend for Ryman Healthcare’s Jane Winstone Retirement Village as the restoration work on the iconic chapel was recognised in the Whanganui Regional Heritage Awards.

The village, located on Oakland Avenue, Whanganui, is unique in Ryman’s portfolio. The village was built on the historic Sacred Heart College site and included a very special chapel in need of some repair.

The chapel was built in 1918 but closed in 2012 for extensive strengthening work. Ryman Healthcare paid for the $1 million restoration as part of its commitment to the Sisters of St Joseph when it took over guardianship of the building.
