who we are

Tollendale Village is a Christian Retirement Community that provides accommodations for individuals aged 65 and older. Individuals who choose this setting are self-reliant and capable of making informed decisions regarding their personal finances, health and daily care needs. Tollendale Village does not provide assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, companionship, meal preparation/feeding, house-keeping or medication management.

Simcoe County Christian Senior Home Inc. (the Society which owns and operates Tollendale Village) was established in 1985 as a membership based non- profit charity to provide a residential community for senior (age 65 plus), members of our society where the Mission, Vision and Values are based on the principles taught in the Christian Bible.

The members of the Society accept and are therefore guided by the following Statements of Faith:
