Vancouver seniors staying connected at barclay manor (july 2013)
1. Vancouver seniors staying connected at Barclay Manor
Martha Perkins
July 25, 2013
Ida, who is 90, Evelyn, who is 86, chat outside Barclay Manor after a Happy Hookers knitting
circle.
As a young woman growing up in London, England, Ida could never understand why the young
women from Ireland and Wales complained about being homesick. London was such a vibrant,
busy city, how could anyone want to live anywhere else?
But decades later, when Idas husband died and she moved to Vancouver from Kelowna to be
closer to her daughter, Ida suddenly understood how those young Irish women had felt. My first
years here, I was nearly demented, Ida says, sitting at a table at Barclay Manor with other
members of the Happy Hookers knitting group.
Ida loved Vancouver as a city but it was an unwelcoming place as a home. This has saved my
life coming here, says the energetic 90-year-old.
Living happily on her own, Ida craved social interaction, whether it was just saying Lovely day
to someone she passed on the street to being able to make new friends. A retired buyer for The
2. Bay, shed started to work when most women stayed at home her husband was so upset he didnt
talk to her for the first three weeks and she didnt want to sit still just because she didnt have a job
to go to. She could afford to go to Mexico twice a year to escape the wet winter cold, but what
about breaking the social ice in what can be perceived as a cold city?
She found exactly what she needed at Barclay Manor, a gracious Victorian home owned by
Vancouver Parks and leased to the West End Seniors Network for $1 a year. No one lives at
Barclay Manor but it is home-away-from-home for hundreds of people who take advantage of its
social programs, everything from the knitting group to Spanish classes to guest lectures to drop-
in activities for people who are older than 55
The programming is as varied as the membership, says Eric Kowalski, the WESNs executive
director. Seniors are like all of us theres a huge variety, he says. The WESNs goal is to keep
them socially connected as a way of combatting the mental and physical risks of being isolated.
Loneliness is worse than any illness, Ida says. Human interaction is the most important thing and
it doesnt cost anything.
Evelyn, whos 86, has brought her knitting needles to the Friday morning club but shes soon on
her way to volunteer at Clothes and Collectibles, a thrift store at Denman Place Mall operated by
WESN to raise money for its programs. (The Happy Hookers sell their handcrafted items there,
too.) Her husband is a lawn bowler who sits on the executive of his club so they both are very
active.
Ive never seen so many women with so many talents, Eveylyn says, referring to the women who
are happily chatting with each other as their knitting needles clack away.
Become a WESN volunteer
West End Seniors Network welcomes more of everything more members, more programming
ideas, more volunteers. It wants to expand its volunteer driving program, for instance, and at
Kays Place, where senior volunteers provide information and referral services on a drop-in basis,
every talent or skill can be put to work.
To find out more about how to get involved as a participant or volunteer, drop by Barclay Manor
at 1447 Barclay Street weekdays from 10 to 4:30pm or call 604-669-5051, or visit WESN.ca
