Edrington Park Retirement Village is holding a Family Day in the Park to entice locals back into the community after last year’s long lockdowns.

Staff at the village are keen to encourage locals and residents to get out and about again, exploring their local community.

Edrington Park is something of a hidden gem – nestled in the centre of the retirement village is a historic manor house, the former home of Lord Casey, a past Governor-General of Australia.

Visitors on the Family Day in the Park will be able to explore the grounds and gardens of the property.

As well as whimsical wandering, visitors will be treated to a range of delicious cuisines from around 10 different food trucks, including Mauritian food, fish and chips, homemade pasta and the ice cream van.

The Family Day in the Park will be held on Saturday 2 May from 12pm.

For more information, call the retirement village on 9131 6363.

Edrington Park Retirement Village is located at 6 Melville Park Drive, Berwick.
