The New Brunswick Senior Citizens Federation (NBSCF) recently held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) at the Legends Room of the Moncton Coliseum on Tuesday, May 9th. Over 100 delegates and non-delegates from all over the province attended the event.

The AGM was hosted by our provincial President, Percy Huntington. The guest speakers were Bryan Butler, Deputy-Mayor of Moncton; Monique Gallant of Service Canada; Daniela Fernandez of the United Way; and Alyssa Margeson of the Red Cross. They all spoke to us about the services available for seniors.

Summer Vacations Stretch Resources Thin – Clients missing medical appointments.

Summer is a time to relax, slow down and take in the amazing beauty of the province of New Brunswick and surrounding areas. It is important to rest, spend time with loved ones and re-energize. Unfortunately, for organizations like Urban/Rural Rides that are dependent on volunteers, when vacation time rolls around, the capacity to help others diminishes as resources are stretched thin to make sure everyone gets a chance to have a much-needed break and vacation. The shortage of volunteers can result in the inability to meet the demand for transportation for those needing to access medical appointments and food banks.

Footloose in Albert County

29/5/2023

0 Comments

The original Footloose Program was a catalyst that brought Albert County together in its quest for moving more, improving health and changing habits. The community gathered, rallied and encouraged each other to reach their goals. Focusing on health changes on our own can be overwhelming. But, if you want to go far, go together!

Our goal with Footloose 2023 is to bring our community together once again - working towards a common goal, having fun and, let’s face it - Who doesn’t like a little friendly competition?
