About Glenwood Home
Since 1964, Glenwood has been run by the Glenwood South Canterbury Trust. We reinvest our income back into rest home care, facilities and village life, so your loved one benefits now and in the future.
At Glenwood, everything starts with people. From the warm welcome at reception to small everyday moments in the lounge, we create a community where residents live with dignity and choice.
As a registered charitable trust, we reinvest our income into high-quality care, comfortable facilities and social life.
Our Values
Our values guide daily life at Glenwood and shape the way we plan for the future.
Te Tiriti o Waitangi is embedded in our approach, and we have a Māori health plan and a Pacific health plan to ensure culturally safe care for all.
