on Tuesday, February 11, 2025

A piece of advice given to Resthaven Marion Community Services client Mrs Lesley Burgess when she was in her 40s was, ‘You’re never too old to learn a new skill’. Following her interests in dance and music, this is something Lesley has taken to heart.

A former employee of Resthaven, Lesley shares her birth year with Resthaven and will turn 90 in 2025. She learnt to swim when she was almost 50, took up tap dance at 43, and learnt the banjo at 65. Lesley continues to bring new skills into her life with scrapbooking, knitting, quilting and embroidery. Alongside all these achievements, Lesley says that the biggest event in her lifetime was the ‘meeting, engagement and wedding to my husband, Ray.’
