What's the lifestyle like at St Laurence Court Community?
Resident selection is carefully managed, with an interview process to ensure homes are offered to those who need them most. Older single women—Australia’s fastest-growing group at risk of homelessness—are prioritised.
Benetas CEO Sandra Hills OAM said the new retirement community would meet the rising demand for affordable housing across Victoria, particularly in regional areas. Ms Hills said seniors without the means to enter the housing and rental markets would be the community’s target demographic.
“Benetas is extremely proud of this refurbishment and what it will do to address housing shortages for older people in and around Bendigo,” Ms Hills said. She added that the refurbishment aims to provide a safe, welcoming, and modern community for seniors who may struggle to access housing in today’s market.
