History

Yesterday

When Archbishop Mowll’s wife, Mrs Dorothy Mowll, had the vision to provide a home for retired clergy and church workers back in 1959, she probably had no way of knowing it would grow into one of Australia’s leading aged care service providers.

Today

Nearly 50 years on from these simple beginnings, our commitment to providing quality care and services to older people in a manner consistent with Christian values, continues to be our charter– we continue to“create communities of Christian care”, integrating elements of Christian faith in to everything we do.

Anglican Retirement Villages (ARV) has steadily developed and grown since its inception and now provides a wide choice of accommodation and service options to over 6000 residents and clients. ARV now owns and manages 22 Seniors Living operations and has two major projects under construction, with more in planning and development across the greater Sydney region.

The work of ARV continues to be part of the Anglican Christian Mission. Our focus is practical care and service provided to older people, but it is founded on the same Christian motivation.

Tomorrow

ARV is proactive in researching the needs of older people in order to provide facilities and services to meet their needs and expectations. Whether it be home-based services or larger units with modern design features, security,and a range of activities, ARV actively encourages positive ageing, giving older people and their families the flexibility to make the lifestyle choice that is right for them.
