Moving forward together in Community, a daylong workshop held in Portage la Prairie involved leadership from thirteen (13) communities to learn, to share and to grow in understanding of those factors that enhance the quality of life for citizens as they age in community. The panel of three community leaders; Tom Farrell from Victoria Beach and President of the Manitoba Association of Senior Centres; Joie van Dongen, Chair of Age Friendly committee in Stonewall; and Linda Little, Councilor from Hamiota outline their perspectives as to the factors that help people to age well in their community, as well as the challenges that exist at the community level that might impinge on aging well.
