Community Life

Promoting a healthy community life is important to Memramcook Municipal Council and staff members. At the heart of their concerns: supporting residents' initiatives, projects and associations. By participating in the development and the planning of recreational and community installations and activities within the municipality, members demonstrate their leadership skills. In fact, actively collaborating with community organisations is essential to fostering harmonious relationships between the various entities who take part in developing a large range of activities. Accessibility, leadership, a sense of belonging, partner autonomy, respect and volunteer appreciation are some of the values defining the municipality's community-based approach. Thanks to organizations and partners, as well as events and activities, all contributing to develop and maintain a strong sense of belonging among our citizens, community life within the municipality is flourishing.

Memramcook is an Age-Friendly Community. An Age-Friendly Community is a place where seniors can age actively, live in security and enjoy good health – actions that will improve the quality of life for all citizens well into the future. When a community undertakes age-friendly initiatives, they’re creating a supportive environment where seniors are respected for the valuable contributions they make and where seniors are given a chance to let their strengths shine. This doesn’t just enhance the quality of life for individuals as they get older – it builds a community that’s more inclusive for everyone!
