Outgoing Abbeyfield Properties director Barry Mills was recently acknowledged for his extensive contribution to the board. Barry has just stepped down after serving on the board for 10 years. During that time he has provided valuable knowledge of the day-to-day operations of Abbeyfield houses, having been involved in Abbeyfield Nelson and its two houses for many years. Barry is pictured left, being thanked by Abbeyfield Properties chair Graeme Roberts at the recent Abbeyfield national conference in Christchurch.
