Position Address:

Goal

Peel Senior Link (PSL), a not-for-profit charitable organization, was established in 1991 as a local initiative of the Ministry of Health, Halton-Peel Long-Term Care Area Office. Since that time, the agency has grown tremendously, now offering services to buildings and their surrounding neighbourhoods that house over 1,200 seniors in the Region of Peel (Brampton & Mississauga).

On Saturday, September 21, 2024, PSL will host a super-fun, family friendly walk (2.5 & 5 km. courses)in Mississauga to support our local programs that particularly allow seniors to thrive independently with dignity and respect. As PSL assembles its team of valuable event volunteers, we have a need for 'route marshals', who will monitor, guide, and encourage walk participants, with special regard to their safety and well being during the walk.
