“The Seniors Fair brings so many helpful resources together in one place, making it easier for people to ask questions, explore their options and connect with the people and organizations that can help.”

Along with exploring the services and speaking with representatives from local organizations, attendees will be able to hear a number of presentations during the event.

• 11 a.m. – How We Hear and How to Hear Better by Tosha Hodgson of Rockwell Audiology
• 12 p.m. – Fall Prevention and Safety by Britni Horncastle of Southward Medical
• 1 p.m. – Personal Planning by Robert Vandersanden with Nidus Personal Planning Resource Centre
• 2 p.m. – Resources, Services and Support at NexusBC by Zoe St-Jean of NexusBC Community Resource Centre

Additionally, attendees will be able to learn about how to plan for the future, including making Representation Agreements and informed decisions regarding personal and health care.

“We want people to leave with more than just a handful of brochures,” Brinkman said.

“We want them to leave knowing where to turn, who they can talk to and what supports are available to them and the people they care about.”
