Community Healthcaring Kitchener-Waterloo

In recognition of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, our Health Centre at 44 Francis St. S. will be closed on Wednesday, September 30, 2026. We will reopen at 9:00 AM on Thursday, October 1.

Today, all of us at Community Healthcaring KW honour the survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never came home, and stand with Indigenous communities.

We encourage everyone to spend time today listening, learning, and holding space for truth and healing. 🧡💜

The news you’ve all been waiting for is finally here - something truly special is blooming in our community, and we are so excited to share it with you! 🍎

To celebrate Community Health and Wellbeing Month, join us in rolling out the welcome mat for AppleFest! for an afternoon packed with crisp apples, warm c***r, and wonderful community connection.

Whether you want to sample delicious apple varieties, explore our interactive Apple Health Trail, strike a pose at the photo booth, or enter to win fantastic raffle prizes, there is something here for everyone. Best of all? It's completely free and open to every single member of our community!

🗓️ When: Tuesday, October 20 | 1:30 to 3:00 p.m.

📍 Where: 44 Francis St. South

Grab your friends, bring your neighbors, and come celebrate with us. 🍂 💛

Something fresh, fun, and full of flavour is brewing behind the scenes... 🤫🍏

We’re planting the seed for a big surprise landing in CHCKW this October, and it’s going to be well worth the wait. We can't wait for everyone to join us for this!
