On air with The Breeze: Epsom Village in the spotlight

Who caught yesterday’s interview on The Breeze with Epsom Village?

Robert and Jeanette had a lovely chat with our Village Manager, Lillian, and our superstar maintenance officer, Les. Les was featured in the Unsung Heroes segment of the programme, recognised for everything he does for our residents at Epsom Village and for always going above and beyond in his role.

To top it off, Robert even wrote a special song for him – Then a Hero Comes Along – which had us all in stitches!

If you missed the programme, don’t worry — we’ve put it all together here for you to enjoy. Make sure you listen through to the end to hear the fabulous homemade song that Les will no doubt cherish.

And Robert… you’re welcome anytime to come for a tour of Epsom Village — we’d love to show you around!

Today, Pakuranga Park is a close-knit community of 400 residents, where staff know everyone by name. Guided by the values of Caring, Integrity, Gratitude, and Community, our team creates a village where life feels rewarding and truly connected.

Lights, Cameras, Action!

At Real Living, we love spending time with our residents — so when the opportunity for a commercial photoshoot arose, we knew our talented people had to be involved. To promote the new Avenue Apartments at Remuera Gardens, 40 residents from across our villages stepped into the spotlight and had a fantastic time becoming “actors” for the project.
