Ida turns 100
Ida turned 100 years young on October 27th. She has been with Rise for 10 years.
This is Ida's Rise team.Vanessa, her previous coordinator, Ashley her scheduler and Gaby who has been Ida's support worker for many years.
Ida is an incredibly active member of her local community and sings in her daughter's choir. She told us that they often sing in residential aged care homes and likes to beat a hasty retreat when they have finished in case they want to keep her. Her unit had well over a 100 birthday cards around the furniture and in piles waiting for a spot to be placed.
Rise presented Ida with a bunch of flowers to add to the many around her unit.
