some time. Our government’s sup-

‘port will help the society to acquire

increase beds from 10 to 18. The
new wheelchair access will help to

ically challenged.

Seniors’

housing

forums

THE LIONSVIEW Seniors’
Planning Society is holding <
series of public forums on
seniors’ housing this month,

Surveys conducted — by
Lionsview during 1992 and 1993
tevealed that many North Shore
seniors feel they will have to move
in the next few years, for financial
or health reasons, but all of them
wished to stay in their own neigh-
borhouds,

But it’s not always easy for
them to find affordable, appropri-
ate, suitably located housing.

Lionsview has invited represen-
tatives of different groups involved
in the issue of seniors’ housing to
speak at several forums and engage
in a panel discussion, The organi-
zation has also invited the mayors
and councillors of each area to
attend. Everyone is welcome, and
although two of the forums have
already been held, there are two
more planned. A slide presentation
will precede the discussion.

On Thursday, April. 14, at
Highlands United Church from
1:30 to 4 p.m., the panel will be
comprised of Mark. Bostwick,
social planner, District of North
Vancouver; Charles Brook, devel-
oper; Val Beamish, Edgemont
Village Community Association,
and Muriel Macleod, senior.

On Tuesday, April 26, at the

West Vancouver Seniors’ Centre’

from 2 to 4 p.m., the panelists will
be Richard Wagner, social planner,
District of West Vancouver; Craig
Vance, housing consultant and
developer; Elaine Fonseca,
Ambleside Ratepayers’ Assoc-
iation; and Bill Murdoch, senior.
