Dating back over 100 years, The Little Company of Mary was inspired by the words of Mother Mary Potter who said, “Love alone inspires us to service.” The people behind this wonderful organisation are devoted to caring for the suffering and dying of our world, providing both practical resources as well as prayer.
First established in New Zealand in Christchurch, 1913, their work continues in the present day with elderly care facilities operating throughout the country.
The Mary Potter Community Centre in Christchurch exists to assist seniors living in the wider community, who may be housebound or isolated through ill health or reduced activity. Residents of Mary Potter Courts are welcome to join the social activities programme provided.
Together with Higgs Construction, The Plant People has been contracted to develop an outdoor area for the residence. It will offer their elderly residents a peaceful outdoor recreation area and garden, as well as provide a screen between living areas.
Higgs has completed their piece of the puzzle while our team are hard at work developing an outdoor space worthy of LCM’s noble work in the community.
Check back soon for further photos as the gardens take shape…
