Life After Fifty
About us
Life After Fifty (LAF) is a multi-service organization and registered charity that offers opportunities for personal wellness to members of the community above the age of fifty. We accomplish this by coordinating social, recreational, educational, and volunteer opportunities for our members to get involved in and enjoy.
Life After Fifty offers classes, workshops and activities in two different locations in the city of Windsor - in both the East and West ends of the city, in order to be as accessible as possible. In keeping with our wellness and health promotion policies, both facilities are smoke-free and fragrance-free.
In addition to the classes and activities offered at our locations, Life After Fifty is devoted to the health and wellness of all seniors in the community and therefore we offer a number of outreach programs & services designed for older adults in our community who may struggle with poverty, isolation or immobility.
The Community Support Services, offered by Life After Fifty, are designed to increase independence and provide social contact and assurance. These services include foot care, the friendly visiting program and the telephone assurance program. These services are either completely free of charge, or have a very small fee associated with them. It is our goal for all of these services to be financially accessible to all seniors in the community.
Another valuable service offered by LAF is the Community Outreach Program. This program seeks to introduce seniors to their community and support them to become involved in activities. Life After Fifty and Family Services Windsor-Essex have partnered to lead this initiative, and work in collaboration with the Windsor-Essex Community Housing Corporation building managers. The Community Outreach Program offers workshops, programs and activities that create education and awareness about various important topics. These workshops are offered regularly in different seniors’ apartment buildings across the... show more city, eliminating the need for transportation.
Workshop topics include:

- Mental and Physical fitness
- Food & Nutrition
