Legion gift helps restore happiness and quality of life

Eldercare would like to thank the members of the Royal Canadian Legion – #7 Britannia Branch (RCL #7) for their generous gift, a portion of which went towards the purchase of a special magnifying reader. This device will restore the ability to read for Marya, a long-term care resident at Aberdeen care home. With the Legion’s support, Marya has now regained her favourite pastime since childhood, greatly restoring her happiness and quality of life. We’re pleased to share this thank you message from Marya and Tom Arnold, Eldercare’s Executive Director.
