IF you pop into Gawler Cinema at Hope Central to catch a movie, you may have seen Philip’s smiling face and shared a friendly word or two.

From filling cups of popcorn to making sandwich boxes and folding serviettes and much more,
the spritely nonagenarian is a key member of the team creating memorable experiences for Gawler movie lovers.

“Volunteering means everything to me,” says Philip, who lives at Gawler Hillside Care Community.

“I help wherever I can.

“If somebody needs help or something needs to be done, I’ll do it.”

Part of the Opal HealthCare family since May 2024, Gawler Hillside Care Community is ideally located for residents to enjoy everything they love about the historic town. 

Gawler Hillside Care Community offers residential aged care, but not as you know it — we take the time to understand the big and the little details about how our residents like to live, so they can enjoy their day, their way.

For Philip, that means continuing to live a life of purpose by serving the local community. 

“Gawler Hillside truly feels like home,” Ann, another resident, says. 

“I enjoy the daily activities, especially getting my nails done.”

Our Care Community offers a relaxing environment with the compassionate and personalised care of 24/7 registered nurses. 

Residents enjoy nutritious, tasty meals created by our inhouse chefs, and love walking in our beautiful gardens, or using their green thumbs. 

Gawler Hillside Care Community is a warm, family-oriented environment, designed to create a sense of kinship. We encourage and support residents to keep the connections they have built within the local community.
