Surrey-Whalley Better at Home

Older adults age 65+ who reside in the Whalley, Fleetwood and Guildford neighbourhoods of Surrey receive non-medical home support services to maintain their independence and well-being.

Surrey-Whalley Better at Home is delivered in partnership with Progressive Intercultural Community Services.

Services We Offer

  • Light housekeeping
  • Transportation to appointments
  • Transportation to grocery shopping trips
  • Friendly visits by volunteers

Fees may apply based on a sliding scale that is aligned to each individual’s/couple’s annual net income. Friendly visiting services by volunteers are free of charge.

“I am very thankful and appreciative of Better At Home. Each week, I look forward to my appointments, having company over, and a clean and orderly home to live in.”

COVID-19 Update

As the BC Restart Plan is under way, some of our regular services have resumed.

The Safe Seniors, Strong Communities initiative is still under way, which supports older adults with the following services:

  • Grocery shopping and delivery
  • Prescription pick-up and delivery
  • Meal pick-up and delivery
  • Virtual (online or telephone) friendly visits

Regardless of where you reside in BC, you can call 2-1-1 to request services. The BC 211 operator will connect you to the service agency that is closest to you.

Volunteers

Volunteers play an important role in Better at Home’s work to support older adults in the community. Learn how you can contribute too.

Better at Home is funded by the Government of B.C. and managed by the United Way.
