What role can movement play in healthy aging? A new article in The Globe and Mail explores this question through the experiences of Chartwell residents Theresa Wilton and Carmen Burke, alongside insights from scientist and human physiologist Dr. Greg Wells.

As part of our ongoing partnership with Dr. Wells, we're pleased to share practical ideas for making movement part of everyday life. As the article highlights, it's never too late to start, and even a small increase in daily activity can make a difference. Read the article: https://ow.ly/fmrN50ZZJac

What a match. What a memory. 🎾 ✨

For years, Émile followed the sport he loves from home. This summer, the 98-year-old from Lévis, Quebec, got to experience the excitement in person, travelling with his daughter to attend the US Open Men's Final in New York.

With surprise courtside seats and a front-row view of an unforgettable match, the trip exceeded every expectation.

Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime - Rêver pour la vie is thrilled to have helped make this special wish a reality and create memories that will last a lifetime. Know a senior with a special wish? Visit our website to learn how you can help make it come true: https://ow.ly/6hSs50ZV7qr

✈️✨ Dreams really do take flight! ✨✈️

Earlier this September, we had the incredible privilege of celebrating a very special moment for Shirley through the Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime Foundation.

Shirley's lifelong wish was simple but meaningful: to experience the joy and wonder of a plane ride. Thanks to Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime, that dream became a reality, creating memories that will be treasured forever.

Seeing Shirley's excitement as she took to the skies was truly inspiring. Moments like these remind us that it's never too late for wishes to come true and for new adventures to begin.

Please join us in congratulating Shirley on her unforgettable journey! 💙✈️
