Welcome to your Veiner and Strathcona Centre Membership and Active Aging Website!
Support Groups
Mental health is just as important as physical health, have a chat with Ben to do a mental health check in or to help gain perspective on a ongoing problem.
Please call 403-529-8307 or stop by our Veiner Centre reception desk to register for a session
Our support groups are open to anyone impacted by Parkinson's, their families, friends and loved ones. Whether it is a desire to learn more, to share experiences and/or to be a part of a community.
Attending a support group can be a great way to learn about Parkinson’s, develop better coping skills, and feel less isolated as you make connections with others facing similar challenges.
Please register directly with Brienne at 403-317-7710 or you can register with their head office at 1-800-561-1911.
This wonderful program run every 3rd Wednesday of every month from 12:00pm to 2:00pm in the Veiner Centre boardroom.
Men's Sheds Canada is a volunteer-based organization, run by men for men, which facilitates and enables older men to gather, socialize and make new relationships while working on individual projects or group projects, shoulder to shoulder.
The goal of Men's Sheds is to improve emotional well-being, combat isolation, anxiety, loneliness and depression within men, particularly older men.
In other words, we get the guys together to tinker, tell stories and hang out for good fun!
