B.C.’s advocate for seniors is coming back to Burnaby on Thursday.
Isobel Mackenzie will be at Bonsor Recreation Complex from 1 to 2 p.m. on March 26 to discuss seniors’ issues.
The Burnaby Seniors Outreach Services Society is hosting the event, which is part of the group’s series on healthy aging.
“It’s an open forum where they can come in and talk with her, and she will answer questions seniors have related to different aspects that affect them nowadays,” said Heather Martin, who sits on the society’s board. “There are so many topics that are of interest to seniors now, … and a lot of people don’t know enough. She would be able to guide them and help them understand.”
The event is on Thursday, March 26, from 1 to 2 p.m. at Bonsor Recreation Complex at 6550 Bonsor Ave. Admission is free, and there will be refreshments. Info: 604-689-8609.
Mackenzie last came to Burnaby in February, when CARP, a seniors’ advocacy group, invited her for a similar session, and she also visited New Westminster recently.
