The Maple Ridge, Pitt Meadows, Katzie, Seniors Network is holding an information session on memory loss and dementia on Wednesday, Nov. 14, from 7 to 9 p.m. as part of their six-part Aging Gracefully lecture series at the Maple Ridge library.

Participants will be encouraged to actively engage in protecting and maintaining their brain and will come away with some strategies and goals for improving the health of your mind, body and spirit.
