The Seniors Advisory and Accessibility Committee, Chaired by Councillor Barbara Steele is
a successful example of how a collective group of representatives of government, public
safety, RCMP, Fire Services, non-profit organizations and seniors in the community can
positively impact the lives of our aging population.
In 2016 Surrey was officially recognized by the World Health Organization as an Age Friendly
City. This recognition is a result of our commitment to the features of an Age Friendly
Community and demonstrates our strong value and appreciation to our aging population.
The City of Surrey offers a continuum of programs, services and events from prevention to
intervention, available for all seniors, caregivers and their families. Seniors can enjoy a wide
range of activities based on their interests and abilities.
Focus on Seniors Forums
With a focus on prevention and awareness
of elder abuse the City of Surrey Seniors
Advisory and Accessibility Committee,
staff and community partners host forums
that raise awareness of issues as well
as provide information and resources on
subjects that include, Housing options
and information, Transportation, Safety
(includes, personal, home, transit and fire
safety), Health and Wellness.
Focus on Seniors Seminars
In response to feedback about long days,
we have developed seminars that are a
maximum of three hours. These seminars
provide information on all the topics
such as Elder Abuse Awareness and
Prevention, Housing, Transportation and
Mobility, Safety, Health and Wellness. In
partnership with community agencies,
we are able to host these seminars in a
variety of languages.
Mobile Outreach
In an effort to bring resources directly to
the community, these Mobile Outreach
sessions are offered by request within
various neighbourhoods in Surrey.
The program is designed to increase
awareness of services and resources and
prevent isolation and abuse.
International Day of
Older Persons – October 1
In Canada we recognize October 1 through
celebrations that acknowledge the
contributions of the aging population to
society. The City of Surrey hosts a concert
at City Hall Theatre followed by light
refreshments and throughout community
recreation facilities workshops of various
topics are offered.
