George Jeffery Children’s Centre celebrating 65th anniversary

The George Jeffery Children’s Centre is planning promotional events all year to celebrate its 65th anniversary.

The centre provides pediatric care for kids from birth to age 19. Its core services support early grade school-aged kids with occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech language pathology. Behaviour support services and an infant child development program are also provided through the centre.

“We want to be known as that organization that’s mature in our community, is trusted and a competent service provider,” said CEO Tina Bennett. “So we thought that year 65 is often associated with all of those things.”

Events and promotions are planned through next winter to celebrate the 65-year milestone.

These events include a spring tea time for clients, a staff appreciation barbecue in June, and a formal gala planned for November.

“I’d like to say thank you to the community, our staff, and all of our partners,” Bennett said. “We look forward to continuing to be that trusted and competent service provider for our region.”
