For the past decade, Tom and Angie have been helping make Barossa Village a place filled with connection, conversation, and community.
Recently recognised at our National Volunteer Week luncheon, the pair celebrated an incredible 10 years of volunteering with the village!
From hosting movie nights and music evenings to sharing stories, laughter, and meaningful conversations with residents, Tom and Angie have become a much-loved part of the Barossa Village community. Their time, energy, and friendship have helped create countless moments of joy and connection over the years.
Volunteering may start with a desire to help others, but for Tom and Angie it has become so much more than that. It's about belonging, building relationships, and being part of a community they genuinely love.
Thank you, Tom and Angie, for ten wonderful years of service, friendship, and care and giving our residents more good days.

Our latest Community Wellbeing outing saw residents hop aboard Howie the Bus and head off for a wonderful day of learning, exploring, and connecting.
The group enjoyed a visit to Aussie Apricots and the Revolution Motor Museum, where they learnt about the history of a proud local family business, explored an incredible collection of vehicles, and enjoyed a delicious home-cooked lunch together.
Of course, no trip to Aussie Apricots would be complete without a stop at the factory shop, with plenty of treats and gifts finding their way home!
These outings are about more than simply getting out and about. They provide opportunities to learn something new, revisit old memories, share experiences with friends, and support the local businesses that help make our region so special.
A fantastic day enjoyed by all!

This past weekend, we had the privilege of celebrating the incredible volunteers who give so much to the Barossa Village community as part of National Volunteer Week.
It was a wonderful afternoon of connection, gratitude, and recognition, including celebrating volunteers reaching 5, 10 and 15 years of service with the village.
A special thank you to Sharyn Broer for sharing the inspiring @mealsonwheelssa story, and to @vineinnbarossa for their wonderful hospitality and catering.
We are so grateful to the people who continue to show up, lend a hand, and help make our community what it is.

As part of National Volunteer Week, Barossa Village recently hosted a special Thank You Luncheon to recognise and celebrate the incredible volunteers who contribute so much to our community.
The afternoon was an opportunity to come together, reflect, and acknowledge the generosity, care, and commitment our volunteers show throughout the year. From supporting outings and activities to simply being a familiar and trusted presence, their contribution plays an important role in daily life across the village.
We were also proud to recognise several volunteers who reached 5, 10 and 15 years of volunteering with Barossa Village - a truly remarkable reflection of the lasting relationships and strong sense of community that volunteering creates! What an amazing achievement.
A sincere thank you to Sharyn Broer from @mealsonwheelssa for joining us and the @vineinnbarossa for their wonderful hospitality and for catering such a beautiful event for our volunteers.
