Celebrating Motherly Love

Published
May 19, 2024

May is the special month when we get the privilege of honouring all the wonderful women in our community for everything they have done and continue to do for us.

We recognise that not every woman at Mayflower is a mother, but every woman can embody a nurturing heart.

So, we celebrate every mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, sister, fur parent, and close friend.

Across Mayflower, we marked this important day with lively afternoons of music, gifts, luncheons, and chef-prepared sweet and savoury hors d’oeuvres.

Gifts Galore

Each woman received a pampering gift pack filled with perfume, hand creams, and more. And what Mother’s Day celebration is complete without a few bubbles or a hot cuppa to cap off the fun?

There were smiles, flowers, and cupcakes galore as residents, our team, and visitors celebrated Mother’s Day across Mayflower.

The spirit of love and appreciation was tangible as we honoured the incredible women in our community with a little extra flair this year!
