All Ashburnham senior citizens are welcome to drop in. They have a lot of information that people might find of interest and is place to have a good time just getting together for a cup of coffee and a chat.

The following are some of the services/ activities available at the Senior Center: Meals-on-Wheels are available to those unable to get out. MOC Nutrition Lunch Meals are served at noon.
