Help plan an age-friendly Colwood

A new Colwood Age-friendly Community Plan is underway to guide improvements that will make our City more welcoming, comfortable and safe for people of all ages and all levels of mobility.

Come and share your ideas at this fun workshop! Be inspired by our guest speaker, Dr. Elaine Gallagher, past director of the Centre on Aging at the University of Victoria.

What would an age-friendly community look like to you? What opportunities do you see for improvement? What steps do we need to take to make it happen?

The workshop will focus on the eight key features of an age-friendly community:

  • Outdoor Spaces
  • Public Transportation
  • Housing
  • Community Support & Health Services
  • Social Participation
  • Respect & Civic Life
  • Employment & Volunteerism
  • Communications
