Message from the Executive Director
As we approach the end of November, I want to take a moment to share that my last day as Executive Director of Victoria Manor will be November 30th. It has been an honour and a privilege to serve this wonderful community, and I am grateful for the trust, support, and collaboration I’ve experienced over my time here.
Caring for our residents and working alongside such dedicated staff and engaged families has been deeply meaningful. I will carry with me many treasured memories of the connections we’ve shared and the milestones we’ve celebrated together.
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your lives and for contributing to the warmth and vibrancy of Victoria Manor. While I am stepping down from my role, I am confident that the home will continue to thrive under the care and commitment of the team.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Denise Bulmer, Executive Director
