Older and Wiser

Older and Wiser Column

For a number of years now our Society has written and published a column for seniors in the North Shore News. The column, titled ’’Older and Wiser,’ is published in the Seniors Section of the Paper. The column is intended to promote discussion on seniors’ issues, reflect the views of the Lionsview Seniors Planning Society and to influence policy and decision makers. We welcome suggestions from our members for ideas on future columns.
