Tea & Conversation

Tea & Conversation is a weekly program for seniors who may not be able to interact with their community as often as they would like to. We provide an interactive, supportive, recreational environment which ensures social inclusion for vulnerable seniors. Compassionate, fun-loving staff and volunteers build a strong rapport with guests.

Live music, dancing, refreshments & stimulating conversation promote the physical, social and mental well-being of older adults.  Over 100 guests every week are able to nourish friendships and connect with a welcoming community.

A $5 weekly donation is requested to help offset the cost of this program.  Free membership available for low income.  New to T&C? Please read the instructions below.
