In an effort to host more staff and programs on site to better serve the community, the Prince George Council of Seniors is moving to a bigger location that will suit their needs and growth well into the future.
The local Council of Seniors office was located at 721 Victoria Street for the last dozen years or so and now they will be located at 1330 Fifth Avenue, right beside MLA Shirley Bond’s office.
“I am applying for more grants for more initiatives and I’m just waiting to hear back on those,” McGregor said. “We’re looking to add two more staff in the future so we really need this space. In the past we were renting boardroom space and finding a new location was very hard. This space is beautiful and we know our staff and clients will appreciate it.”
Regular programs like Meals on Wheels and Better at Home will continue to run during the office closure.
