Positive Aging Campaign

Positive Aging Campaign 2022

October 1 to 7

The City of Richmond Seniors Services celebrates National Seniors Day every year with a campaign that showcases positive images of seniors in Richmond. The goal of the campaign is to reduce ageism and existing stereotypes. A different theme is chosen annually with posters displayed at community centres and other Richmond locations featuring positive messages.

Richmond Seniors Show How Aging Positively Spreads Community

This year’s campaign theme, Seniors Building Connection in the Community highlights seniors who are aging positively in Richmond by inspiring others, being active or ensuring newcomers feel welcomed.

Learn more about these inspirational seniors by reading their stories.
