Doncare
Stay Connected, Active & Supported
Doncare’s Social Support Groups help older people living independently remain socially connected, active and engaged within their community. Designed for seniors who may be experiencing, or at risk of, social isolation or loneliness, the program offers meaningful social connection, group activities and supportive transport in a welcoming and inclusive environment.
