Needham Senior Center provides senior newsleters to all residents inviting seniors to a majority of events. Both educational and problem-oriented classes are availiable, some are virtual. The Needham senior center provides meal delivery. With the rising cost of food, this is truely a gift.
In addition, supermarkets in the community have special hours for seniors to shop. Needham has senior housing and transportation services. Also, there is a wonderful, senior volunteer work force and so, a strong senior presence in Needham. I enjoy living and working in Needham and I am sure there are many seniors who would agree.

Has become a hospital and service hub over the last few years. Remains navigable and accessible as it has been for many years.
