Remote Recreational Programs for Seniors
Just because we can’t be together in person, doesn’t mean we can still spread some Sunshine! For the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sunshine Centres for Seniors will be offering a variety of remote programs to keep you connected. Please find a full list of our current program offerings below. For more information, please contact [email protected] or 416-924-3979.
