Funders make it possible
We are incredibly grateful to our generous funders, whose grants enable Flamborough Connects to continue offering free and low-cost programs. A special thank you to 4Imprint for their recent grant, which will allow us to produce branded sticky note pads—an essential tool for sharing information with our clients.
A new face
Flamborough Connects is excited to again partner with Mohawk College and the Social Service Worker program to host a placement student this winter. A warm welcome to Casey who will be joining the Flamborough Connects’ team for a semester.
Wheel of Fitness
This is the perfect time to get active! Flamborough Connects is excited to offer Wheel of Fitness, a free gentle fitness program designed for older adults. Classes have started and are running every week across Flamborough, including at locations in Beverly Hills Estates, Strabane, Troy, West Flamborough and Waterdown, and we will be relaunching our virtual class in February if there is enough interest.
