This June, the City of Brampton is rolling out the red carpet for its senior residents, celebrating Seniors Month with a wide range of free programs, special events, and the launch of Canada’s first free 65+ Annual Recreation Membership.
Under the theme “Fit, Active and Healthy Seniors,” the month-long celebration highlights the immense contributions of Brampton’s older adults and reinforces the importance of staying connected, active, and mentally well as we age.
“Older adults bring wisdom, resilience and a strong sense of community to Brampton,” said Regional Councillor Rowena Santos, Chair of the Community Services Section. “We are proud of the progress we’ve made through our Age-Friendly Strategy, and this month is about ensuring our seniors continue to thrive with meaningful support and services.”
Free 65+ Recreation Membership Now Available
Starting this month, Brampton is making history as the first city in Canada to offer free annual recreation memberships to residents aged 65 and older. Seniors can sign up at any City of Brampton recreation centre by providing:
- Proof of Brampton residency (e.g., driver’s licence, utility bill)
- Proof of age and identity
- Proof of Canadian citizenship or permanent residency
