Photo didn’t represent active city seniors in Langford

Not all elderly residents get around with the help of a walker

Re: Langford one of B.C.’s most “age-friendly “ communities

As a senior living in Langford, I was interested to read this article by Mike Davies. I am happy that I can walk to most of the services I need.

However, I was disappointed that the photo representing seniors was such a stereotype. I walk weekly with a group of seniors, many in their seventies with no walkers, around Langford and surrounding parks and trails and we manage five to seven kilometres. Perhaps you might print a photo of active seniors striding along.
