At Zerin Place Seniors Apartments

From Glen Cairn Community Resource Centre representative:

“As the Seniors Facilitator at Zerin Place, Commissioners Road, through the Glen Cairn Community Resource Centre, I'm happy to report that the programming offered so far has been well received.

Since its start in mid-January, free produce, breads, and other food items from The London Food Coalition, through the Glen Cairn Community Resource Centre, are available to the seniors at Zerin Place once a week. In addition, they have participated in sing alongs, games, social events, song sharing and other discussion groups, and information sessions three times per week.

It's been highly rewarding to get to know such vibrant, sharp, friendly, and caring people, and to see many of them coming together, looking out for each other, and helping each other. I commend your organization for its active role in helping seniors live their best lives, and I'm honoured and grateful for this opportunity to play a part.”

At Zerin Place on Clarke Road

From LUSO Community Services representative:

LUSO Community Services has been offering programming and services to residents of Zerin Place - 440 Clarke Rd - since June 2023. Over the past several months we have offered residents one-on-one services including information/referrals to local programs and resources, OESP registration, support looking for family doctors, updating IDs and more.

The building is lucky to have a community room with a kitchenette that has been used for social events and workshops. Some of the social events have included BINGO, cookie decorating, board games, cooking and coffee hours. A highlight over the past year is the resident-led social committee that formed in fall 2023. The group plans and facilitates monthly events including pumpkin carving, potlucks and movie nights. Alongside of the social activities, information workshops have been offered including budgeting, price matching and guest speakers from employment supports. Lastly, LUSO offers food supports to residents through the London Good Food Box, gift cards and Pop-Up produce markets.
