Aging in Place on BHI

Project Longevity

Project Longevity is made up of a small group of Islanders who want to make it easier for folks to live on Bald Head Island as long as possible or “age in place.” This group has identified community resources (listed below) to help others. The group initiated the establishment of a polling site on the island and is always seeking other opportunities to assist Islanders. The group has reached out to local service providers to make advanced arrangements on behalf of Islanders.

Additional information on Project Longevity can be found on their website HERE.

The Village Chapel is here to help; for those who might need help with meals, in-person visits, or other types of support, due to an injury, family emergency, or for any other reason, please reach out to Christine Osborne, who heads up the Meals Committee for the Village Chapel under our Outreach team. If more than meals are needed, Christine can coordinate with other Village Chapel committees to see what support they might be able to offer.
