The Beyond Band-Aids Initiative, in partnership with the Bridgewater United Church, is pleased to be hosting another community conversation for all Lunenburg County residents. We have all experienced how rapidly things are changing both in the world and right here in our communities. There is an increased need to address issues such as affordability, safe and available housing, mental health, stigma and discrimination, social isolation as well as other broader concerns.
If you have been looking for a safer space to explore these and other issues, please join us in conversation. Whether you are currently facing challenges yourself, supporting your neighbours, or simply concerned about these issues, you are welcome. Your experiences and perspectives matter. We will reflect on how we can continue to think ‘beyond band-aids’ and identify ways to work together to build ongoing, sustainable solutions and quality of life for all.
When: Thursday, May 28th, 2026 5:30-6:00pm (Light meal provided); 6:00-8:00pm (Event proceedings)
Where: Bridgewater United Church, 87 Hillcrest St, Bridgewater
