The Seniors Helping Seniors Program from Summit Community Services is getting additional support from the City of Kimberley to expand their offerings within the community.

The program is being temporarily expanded to help those impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak.

Several services and supports are being offered by Seniors Helping Seniors including the following:

  • Grocery and/or supply pick-up and delivery;
  • Prescription pick-up and delivery; and
  • Providing referrals to other support agencies

Anyone looking to access the support network can call 250-427-8733 between 10:00 am and 4:00 pm every day of the week.
