For over 30 years, the LA CENTRE for Active Seniors has been developing and delivering socially engaging programs that promote health and independence for people aged 55 and over in Toronto’s West End community.

LA CENTRE invites seniors to get active, stay healthy, learn something new, and to stay connected. Through its services, LA CENTRE fosters a culture of respect, inclusion, and diversity to ensure that all seniors are welcome to engage and contribute to their community.

In March 2020, LA CENTRE suspended in-person programming and turned its focus to a more pressing matter for seniors—food security. Although the majority of the population was at risk of contracting the virus, senior were some of the most vulnerable parties; they needed support that would allow them to stay safe in their homes while still getting the supplies they needed, like meals and pantry bags.
