The residents want to thank the clubs for their goodwill towards the centre now and over the last 50 years. Each club (Rotary, Lions, Round Table) has a representative on the board of directors.
History
The RLR was formed at a meeting of Rotary, Lions and Round Table of George. The meeting took place on 18 June 1964 in the offices of NX Hartnady of Rotary and was attended by HA Comay, F van Copenhagen and Hartnady of Rotary, T Stroenel and P van Soelen of Lions and W Steenkamp and P Slabbert of Round Table.
The service clubs involved recognised the potential of pooling their resources to work for the elderly and people in need. The concept of a 'Home for the Aged' was proposed and accepted. The George Service Clubs Utility Company was founded in 1970.
