The Seniors Social Connections group meets weekly to share a light meal, engage in social time or activities (guest speaker or games). Between meetings, members can be telephoned by the facilitator or a program volunteer, if they request a reminder.

This group is a support to seniors who may be experiencing health concerns, isolation or depression, and seeks to encourage friendships and connections outside the group meeting times. The Seniors Social Connections program is supported by Victoria Better At Home.
