It was through the actions of volunteers that Lambton Elderly Outreach was first started.  It is through the unselfish dedication of its volunteers, along with the support of its Board Members and Staff that Lambton Elderly Outreach has evolved, over the past forty years, to become a leader in Community Services for Seniors and Adults with Disabilities.  Here is how we have grown over the years:

Satellite offices were established in Corunna, Forest and Grand Bend.

2002
The main office was relocated from Petrolia to the current location in Wyoming at Reeces Corners.

2010
The satellite office in Sarnia was closed.

Today Lambton Elderly Outreach employs over sixty staff members that include Office Administrative Staff, Van Drivers, Home Support Works / Personal Support Workers, and Home Maintenance Workers.  LEO also has over one hundred volunteers who dedicate their time to deliver service in many of our programs and to sit on our Board of Directors.
