    I'm so thankful to be living in Ottawa and being a member of this wonderful organization. They provide help to seniors who are in need of services such as transportation, grocery shopping, activities, exercise programs , social gatherings and many more. Because of them, I am able to remain in my home. This Thanksgiving is the best time to thank the whole team and let them know how grateful I am♥️

    A nice senior center with friendly kitchen / cafeteria that also serve as the kitchen to 12 Meals on Wheels routes around Ottawa. With aging population and what you hear about isolated seniors, it is good that there are facilities like this for our loved ones to go to and stay active.

    I came to take a tour of the facilities to better understand TGC. However, although all participants wore masks, the leader of the tour did not wear a mask. Therefore I left the Centre and did not complete the tour. I take the bus (it takes an hour) and was frustrated that ‘staff’ did not comply with masking mandate.

    One of Ottawa's best seniors social club. They have daily activities for all abilities and interested in the active senior today. They also bring in local businesses that can offer certain services in a mobile while so that seniors can have access while attending other programs. Very happy, collaborative, welcoming experience.
