Our BETTER AT HOME program is continuing to offer essential support to local seniors throughout the COVID-19 epidemic.
We will continue to provide yard work services and friendly phone calls/check-ins.
To protect the health and safety of all parties, these services will involve NO direct contact between seniors and our volunteers.
Our staff will be available via phone at 250-219-2119, Monday to Friday, 9-4:30 and we will respond to any messages left outside our operating hours as soon as we can.
We will also do our best to provide seniors with information and referrals they may require to meet any needs that extend beyond what we can offer through Better at Home at this time.
Be Safe and please reach out if you are in need of support.
