On Monday January 22, 2024 our project signed a partnership agreement with The Good Companions, Ottawa, a non-profit multi-service seniors’ centre, providing opportunities for older adults to participate in social, recreational, educational and volunteer activities and benefit from social and health services. The Good Companions are partnering with Killick Coast North Seniors Co-operative on accessing and running their Seniors’ Centre Without Walls (SCWW), a phone-based group sessions program in the Killick Coast North region.

To support Killick Coast North Seniors Co-operative in accessing and running this program in our region, The Good Companions have also awarded us with a Micro-grant of $ 4,000 for 2024. In addition, the partnership supports Killick Coast North Seniors Co-operative with their onboarding and training program for our program coordinator and facilitator.
