Meet Karl – Memories Under the Stars | Able Moments Ep.3

In Episode 3 of Able Moments: Life at Outstanding Oaks, we meet Karl — a resident who often carries a quiet sadness, missing the days of wild trails in California, campfire nights, and his best friend, Kevin.

But when the Able Table is wheeled over, something begins to shift… With a tap of the screen, Karl is transported to scenic forest paths, crackling virtual campfires, and the winding roads of California — places he and Kevin once explored together. And then, a surprise video call reconnects them in the most beautiful way.

From Google Earth hikes to sharing camping stories with other residents, Karl’s memories come flooding back — and this time, they bring light, laughter, and a smile that lasts.

Meet Peter: Gone Fishing | Able Moments Ep.4 | Rediscovering Joy Through Technology

In Episode 4 of Able Moments, we meet Peter – a quiet soul at Outstanding Oaks who once lived for peaceful mornings by the water.

A lifelong fisherman, Peter had slowly grown withdrawn, missing the simple joys of casting a line, reeling in a catch, and swapping stories with his best mate.

But thanks to the Able Table, Peter gets more than a memory — he gets a moment.

Watch as Peter reconnects with his past through:

• Immersive fishing videos and relaxing nature sounds
• A virtual trip back to his favourite lakeside using Google Earth
• Playful, interactive fishing games that bring a smile to his face
• And group storytelling sessions that turn into something truly special

With each screen tap, Peter’s confidence returns as a man with stories to share, skills to pass on, and plenty of smiles left to give.
