KW AccessAbility Activities October 21 to November 2

Posted on Monday October 21, 2024
Hi Everyone,
 
November is just around the corner. Join us on Tuesday (October 22) so we can plan when activities are going to happen next month. You can let us know what you would be interested in doing, too. Some of the things we are looking at making are Christmas Cards, seasonal crafts and putting together Gingerbread Houses in November so that they are ready for Christmas time. We would like to hear what dates you are available to participate in these crafts.
 
Friday this week has our Monthly Evening Social event. Join us to just kick back and relax at the end of the week socializing with friends and peers. Details in the listing below. 
 
We are thrilled to announce the return of Wheelchair Repair Clinic with the amazing support of Mobility Makers - a new collective of dedicated volunteers looking to support our community by providing minor fixes of mobility devices ie. Wheelchairs, walkers and scooters. If you are having minor issues, please let us know you are planning to stop by so that we can make sure we have what is needed to fix your issue. The Clinic will be held on Saturday November 2 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the KW AccessAbility office. 
 
 
Please let the office know which events you are planning to attend so that we can plan accordingly! You can either call the office at 519-885-6640 or email rwismer@kwaccessability.ca
