But it’s such a welcoming place. You end up par- ticipating more than you thought you would. When you start volunteering, you realize some communities wouldn’t exist without volunteers. You don’t have those activities. It’s the same at Abbotsford.” Abbotsford and Glebe Centre volunteers have been busy in a number of crafty ways. The Christmas craft tables and hand-made teddy bears are a big draw at the annual sale. Abbotsford ladies have been sewing and stuffing little bears and animals throughout the year. This year, the bazaar’s artisan fair will be expanding. This showcase and sale of local handicrafts was added to the an- nual event last year. Local artisans will be selling their jewelry, weaving, cards and other items over at the Glebe Centre. Homemade pies will also be on sale. A good, old-fashioned “pie-bee” took place at Abbotsford recently. Two bushels of apples were donated by McKeen’s Loeb Glebe for the apple pies. Volunteers and staff peeled, cored and whipped up enough pastry for 50 pies. The pies are now frozen and ready for the bazaar. The Glebe Centre’s bistro will also be open and serving coffee and chili. As usual, there will be a silent auction featuring jewelry, artwork and many other items donated by local businesses. The front lounge will showcase “Attic Treasures,” including crystal and fine china. And there will be lots of unique finds in the flea market area. All the money raised at the annual bazaar goes towards programs at the sen- iors’ centre. See you there on Sat., Nov. 29! The Glebe Centre presents A silent auction of artwork by residents Fri.

  • Questioning the SENIOR COHOUSING CHALLENGE: a Cross-Sector Analysis of Interviews with Leading Experts
    Questioning the SENIOR COHOUSING CHALLENGE: A Cross-Sector Analysis of Interviews with Leading Experts by Lynn Pfeffer A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Architectural Studies Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2018 Lynn Pfeffer Abstract Seniors will make up an unprecedented 25% of Canadians by the year 2030. This demographic shift will challenge our society to address the basic human right of a dignified and healthy aging. One troubling aspect of aging is the degree to which seniors experience isolation and loneliness. Cohousing can offer older adults a place to age in place, within a ‘community-of-care’. However, the challenges of creating senior cohousing are numerous – the failure rates staggering. What factors contribute to this challenge? What could the way forward look like? This thesis searches for answers in the perspectives of professionals representing sectors of the development process. Interviews were conducted with experts in: non-profit housing, housing policy, development consulting, and private real-estate. Focusing on urban senior cohousing in Ottawa, Convivium Cohousing is used as a case study to ground the theory. It is expected findings will transfer to other parts of Canada. ii Acknowledgments With the deepest gratitude and respect, I thank my supervisor Federica Goffi for her unwavering support and encouragement. Your uncanny ability to know when to give feedback and when to listen is deeply appreciated. To all those who participated so generously and willingly in the interviews for this thesis, I am indebted to you for your insights and expertise.
