Improvements at the Centre
Since we opened our doors on January 2007 we have taken out
corner washrooms to allow for office and storage.
Installed a door closure over kitchen counter to
provide security.
Remodeled a room downstairs as a computer training
room: painting
walls, floor, tables, electrical and set up computers and
overhead screen.
Installed the donated Computers and screen we
received from
Aliant Computers for Schools Program.
Built a new Entranceway built with seniors in mind,
wheelchair entrance, low gradual steps leading to the
downstairs making the second floor more easily accessible
for our seniors and space for a future chairlift.
We have just completed a new washroom facility on the first
floor.
Due to our experience with vandalism in the past, we have
installed security cameras
at the Centre in order to curb such
happenings. Also, to assist in keeping our insurance rates and costly
repairs stable.
As funds become available we hope to make many more
improvements at the Senior Centre. So we can make the Senior
Centre all it should be for the seniors in the Sussex and
surrounding area.
