Seniors’ Community Services is supported by hundreds of volunteers who are the driving force behind our programs and services. They are the champions of the SCS mission, and advocate for the seniors in our community. Working along side the staff at SCS, volunteers are integral in supporting the day to day operations of the centre whether it be as a kind voice on the phone, the welcoming presence at the front desk, the chefs who plan and prepare meals, or the drivers delivering Meals on Wheels. There is an opportunity to suit anyone’s personality or lifestyle.
