One of the first things visitors notice about Arvida’s Ilam Living Well Community in Christchurch is a feeling of calm and contentedness, it is often said we are a community with a heart. In this long-established haven, which is framed by beautiful gardens, residents are encouraged to be themselves, express their thoughts and make their own choices. It all contributes to a happy community where everyone has what they need to feel at home.
