Seniors Tech Buddies
We can help you learn to use your information and communications devices--smartphones, laptops, tablets and desktop computers. Call to set up an appointment for free help, offered in partnership with the Seniors Network. We teach at your pace. We are slow teachers.
If fancy devices frustrate you too much, we can also set up your social group with a teleconferencing platform that calls everyone at once and connects them via the humble telephone. Call us to set it up for you.

Strategy for Engaging Elders (SEE) and
Seniors Activity Group Eh! (SAGE) --Humour & activities for Elders, including people Living with dementia and caregivers
Sue and Bev
There is a certain magic created by diverse people coming together to share humour, refreshments and conversation. First envisioned by Sue & Gerry Kennedy and their friend Bev Collins, SAGE is an inclusive group of elders with a special place in their hearts for people with dementia and their caregivers. The primary focus is social activities--but there are plenty of opportunities to share vital information and resources that make the challenges of living with dementia easier. The award-winning group meets weekly at the CEED Centre Neighbourhood House or heads out on adventures in the community. And you don't have to be involved with dementia to participate, you just have to identify yourself as a senior. In the past, the program has been supported in part by the New Horizons for Seniors program of the Government of Canada, to whom we are most grateful. SEE is a program that aims to broaden the range of elders participating in SAGE and engage them in community life.
Join us Tuesday mornings from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon at the CEED Centre Neighbourhood House.
Refreshments are supplied. Most activities are free. We frequently carpool to off-site locations to explore our communities.
Drop in any Tuesday, or contact the CEED Centre to register as a participant. Participation is open to all Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows seniors regardless of health status.
