Seniors' Councils and Clubs

Approximately 19 seniors’ councils and over 200 seniors’ clubs are active in Nova Scotia. Clubs offer a wide variety of programs and social events for local seniors. Councils are comprised of representatives from each seniors’ club. They serve as a forum for sharing information and addressing local seniors’ issues. Representatives of the seniors’ councils meet with the Seniors’ Secretariat at least twice a year.

For a list of seniors’ clubs in your area, contact your local seniors’ council or the Seniors’ Secretariat at 1-800-670-0065.
