WHY

With an aging population and concern over health care costs, keeping older adults well-informed and healthy is a hot topic. Thanks to funding from Bruce Power, the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation and the Health Canada Drug Strategy, local agencies and volunteers have come together to offer resources to Kincardine and area residents in a novel and effective way.
