The Elders Centre in North Vancouver provides programs for Elders, age 55 and over, to support their social connection, independence and overall wellbeing (65+ have priority for special programming). There are a variety of weekly activities like lunches, chair yoga, Squamish language class, weaving, drum-making and other traditional activities.
A variety of outings are offered to visit different locations, so our Elders can enjoy the outdoors and the Lower Mainland. Our Elders also love a good party, so we have quarterly Birthday Lunches and a yearly Christmas Lunch.
