2023 National Retirement Living Award winners crowned
The winners of the 2023 National Retirement Living Awards have been announced at the annual gala dinner, held last night on the Gold Coast.
In front of 585 industry professionals, winners were crowned across 10 categories ranging from best retirement community to Village Manager of the Year.
Retirement Living Council Executive Director Daniel Gannon said it was important to acknowledge and celebrate the great people and teams reshaping the industry across Australia.
“This industry is turbo-charged with talent, including dedicated village managers, purposeful customer-focused operators, and innovative service providers,” he said.
“These industry awards recognise the ‘best of the best’ and those who make a conscious decision every day to improve the lives of senior Australians.
“And let’s not forget that while some industries invent, others harvest, grow or make things – we are designing, building and creating world-leading age-friendly communities at a time when housing supply is under great duress.
“To our national award winners, we extend our congratulations and thanks for the work you do in communities and for communities around Australia.”
