Transitioning from driving a car to using alternative forms of transportation such public transit, shuttle services, or volunteer driving programs, doesn’t have to be daunting! We are here to help seniors and their loved ones through the driving cessation process.

Whether you are a senior, have senior family members, or are thinking ahead to your future, there are a number of accessible, affordable, and convenient transportation options in BC for those who don’t drive.

 

Join us in celebrating BC Seniors' Week 2023 with a special collaboration between United Way BC and Better Environmentally Sound Transportation (BEST), alongside esteemed organizations. Together, with the generous support of Vancouver Coastal Health and Vantage Point, we are proud to spotlight and honor the remarkable community champions who passionately advocate for alternative forms of transportation.

This initiative serves as a platform to showcase these inspiring individuals and their invaluable contributions towards creating a more sustainable and accessible transportation landscape for seniors. Together, let's recognize and celebrate the remarkable achievements of these community champions during BC Seniors' Week 2023.

Explore their stories and join us in embracing alternative transportation solutions for seniors!
