Happy holidays from the team at Ryman
It’s that time of the year when we eat a little too much Pav, watch Love Actually for the umpteenth time then head off on holiday in search of some summer fun with friends and family. As we sign off for the year, we’d like to wish everyone a joyous holiday season filled with warmth, love and laughter. So, from all our staff and residents, have a very happy holiday and a safe and prosperous New Year.
