Killick Coast North Seniors Co-operative (KCNseniors.coop) is a non-profit community service co-operative, where volunteers offer services to the public and to members helping them age well at home and in their communities. Located in Pouch Cove, NL, we initially serve the communities in Bauline, Flatrock, and Pouch Cove.
“I express my utmost support and admiration for the incredible initiative the Killick Coast North Seniors Co-operative have taken on” – Joedy Wall, MHA
We are a community where everyone has a voice and place to belong. The development of KCNseniors.coop is based on the co-operative values and principles and following the Village Model of the Village to Village Network. We strive to “change the paradigm of aging”. We co-create a “jointly-owned and democratically-controlled” social enterprise valuing “self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity”. We aspire to overcome loneliness and isolation through building “a sense of community” and within a framework of gender equity, diversity, inclusion, belonging, and anti-racism.

Do nothing, nap, and let your mind wander – This will support your intelligence, creativity, memory consolidation, and problem-solving. It may result in bigger brain, and it can slow down ageing by up to six years. Finally, it can boost everything from creativity and abstract thinking to emotional intelligence, social understanding, and even our ability to anticipate and plan for the future.
