- RSVB was founded in 1974 when the Florida Dutch Reformed Church and its circle realised the need for a safe retirement village for the aged in the area.
- After consultation with other churches in the area the Afrikaanse Sakekamer was consulted for their expertise and funding.
- The Roodepoort City Council donated the property where the village was erected.
- RSVB do not receive any grants from government.
- We are a private institution where Jesus Christ is honoured and Christian values are practiced.
