A big part of English Bay is it's community centres. Community centres offer a wealth of programming, assistance, advocacy, social activities, and opportunities to meet and interact with other people from our community.
If your looking for a way to get involved in the community and maybe even get to learn new skills in the process check out volunteer opportunities in any of our local centres. Volunteerism offers a great chance to interact and assist your community. It also offers a chance to learn new skills to take with you into your job and life in general. Try it, you'll feel great!
