Did you know that Thunder Bay is an official Age Friendly City? We belong to the World Health Organization network, a global voice for healthy and active aging.

What does that mean for you as an older adult? Age Friendly Thunder Bay is passionate about tapping into this movement where seniors of all ages feel valued, secure, included and empowered. This might be safer neighbourhoods, easier access to health care, less isolation and more social time with family and friends.

The vision isn’t ours alone. This is a collective effort with several local organizations as vital partners. Together we are creating opportunities for health, participation and security for a better quality of life for seniors and the community. AFTB reaches its goals through informed policies and program choices.

We actively seek the wisdom of our older adults, the innovation of business leaders, and the dedication of service providers. We count on the support of our political leadership. And of course we ask for your unique perspectives to pave the way for an Age Friendly Thunder Bay.

Join us in this collaboration! How age friendly could we become?
