York Manor would love to have you join our team as a Volunteer

York Manor residents want you to join our team of volunteers!

"Give what you have to somebody, it may be better than you think."

- Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-82)

York Manor Nursing Home is fortunate to have a full complement of activity directors. We host a variety of activities and events for our 214 residents. The resident's quality of life is of utmost importance to us and we believe regular and special activities, along with seasonal events, are essential aspects of daily living.

Volunteers Urgently Needed on Sunday!

We are currently in need of volunteers for our weekly Sunday worship service in the Friendship Centre at 2:30 pm. to help with portering the residents to and from the service.  If you have a free Sunday for one hour a month or more we could use your help. For more information contact Shelley Kenny, Manager of Volunteer Services, at 444-3880 ext. 2515.

 Volunteers help make the below activities happen more regularly.
