Lounge Room Renovations At Moyne: The lounge room at Moyne has received a make-over and last Tuesday the final addiarrived, with two armchairs and three twoseater lounges finishing off the space perfectly. Renovations have included a new colour scheme, a fire place with limestone surround, and new prints to give the room a very homely feel. Well done to the Moyne maintenance team of Phil and Darren for their amazing effort. The new lounge room is the place to be on cold winter evenings. Renovations are continuing throughout the facility, with big changes over coming weeks to the Memory Support Unit.
