Dorothy “Dot” Lipmann AM notes humbly that she’s “lucky” to have been a painter her whole life. But, in fact, it’s the Melbourne public that are fortunate to have witnessed her latest collection of poignant yet alluring works, entitled Hidden.

This International Women’s Day we are sharing Judith’s inspiring story, which is one of overcoming adversity and taking back control of her life.

Following a community consultation process, Wintringham has now received Town Planning approval from the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) to begin construction of the Patricia Larkin community housing in Golden Square Bendigo, in late February 2022.

Highly respected aged care industry Executive and Advocate Patricia Sparrow, has joined the Board of Australia’s largest provider of aged care services to people experiencing or vulnerable to homelessness.

Yesterday, Wintringham was excited to be part of a very special announcement in Carlton North!

The COVID pandemic didn’t stop Heathcote’s newest residents moving into four purpose built one bedroom social housing units in November 2020. And today, one year later we celebrate this milestone with the official opening of the units.

Every year on 19 November, International Men’s Day is a chance for individuals, communities and organisations to get together to not only celebrate the positive male role models in their lives and the contributions they make to their communities, but also to recognise the problems many men face today.

Beneath the recent revelations by The Age and disturbing stories coming from the Royal Commission into Aged Care lies an industry largely unregulated and almost totally hidden to most Victorians: the supported residential services.

Twelve months ago Wintringham opened its very own purpose-built Specialist Dementia Care Unit, located at our McLean Lodge site in Flemington.

In partnership with the Victorian State Government, and thanks to the generosity of the Peter & Lyndy White Foundation, Wintringham has secured funding to build a 35-unit social housing development for older people who are vulnerable to homelessness in Golden Square, Bendigo.

Wintringham is proudly presenting the 2021 Art Space online starting 2 August to coincide with Homelessness Week (1 - 7 August).

When times get hard, there’s nothing better than a helping hand. Victoria’s wild weather from 9–10 June presented challenges for many Victorians, including residents in our Romsey and Lancefield units who lost power for several days.
