Happy September! One of my favourite months of the year. A time of change, transition, abundance and harvest.
August was a busy month with lots of planning and preparation for our Creative Workshop series, and pitch in the Starter Company Plus program. We also concluded our very successful Active Aging Social Club series that was funded by a grant received the the Community Changemakers program at Laurier Launchpad.
See below to learn about the age-friendly activities that target overall health and well-being throughout the month of September. The following items are facilitated by Golden Age Management owner, Michelle Jamieson.

The Grand Parade
In Canada, growing older can often rob people of status, a sense of being valued, and even self-respect. On September 21, 2024, we're walking and fundraising to publicly honour and support aging friends and family. The Grand Parade is a family-friendly fundraiser walk that helps support local charities who provide essential care and service for aging Canadians. Team up, walk, and fundraise with our team: Golden Agers!

Coming Up Next Month
Seniors Social Club
October is seniors month and we are joining the City of Brantford in recognizing, honouring and appreciating older adults in our community by offering programming to promote active aging. Golden Age Management will be offering a social club for seniors to gather, network and simply have fun with others within their community!
