Greetings to all 411 Seniors’ members and supporters,
This month we are launching a new website and communication materials for the 411 Seniors Centre Society. We are updating our newsletters, pamphlets, and brochures to better inform and connect with our members and the community. This will be a work in progress as the new 411 Editorial Committee learns new skills and how to navigate this digital world. The committee is very aware that many of us do not use computers and our work includes ensuring accessible print versions of information.
We invite you to send us your feedback and/or submit items for the website or newsletter as we undergo this change.
Our many thanks to Greenhill Communication, Juliet, and Brad, who are supporting us in this learning.
Temporary Operations
After nearly a decade of operations at 333 Terminal Ave. in Vancouver, we have moved to a temporary office (across from our construction project) at Glad Tidings Church 3456 Fraser Street (Fraser St. & 19th Ave.). you will find us at:
Glad Tidings Church, 3456 Fraser Street – Bus #8
Information & Referral Services are being offered by appointment Monday to Thursday 9am – 4pm by appointment. You can call 604-684-8171
We are also planning summer events to bring us together. Watch for more information on activities planned for August and September.
Looking ahead
The 411 Seniors Centre is in start of a rebuilding stage, following 2 ½ years of the pandemic and the move from our last location on Terminal Ave. Both of which have greatly affected us.
As a senior-led, volunteer powered organization we are working to re-establish the volunteer committees that lead our work and support the small 411 staff team. For a list of committees please contact us at 604-684-8171 or visit our new website for more information. Please join us!
The current timeline for completion of the new centre (under construction) is mid-October. The new centre is located at Fraser & 19th Ave. in Vancouver. We will be providing updated information on the new centre in early September.
I would like to send a special thank you to the 411 volunteers who have held us up through trying times and invite all of you to join 411 Seniors as we embark a new chapter.
Leslie Remund
Executive Director
