senior citizens' work in the community

A look at the community shows that more and more senior citizens are becoming part of social life. According to HL Manager, in 2021 people have already made up 22 percent of the total population for over 65 years. This development brings specific needs to be considered. Therefore, an analysis of the existing offers for people aged 60 and over is more than necessary. This is the only way to improve or expand senior citizens' work.

In order to determine the actual need for offers for seniors, direct contact and comprehensive needs determination are important. With the help of volunteers, the implementation of events and help offers can be ensured. In addition, the meeting places for social interaction should be well known, because a pleasant atmosphere and ergonomic furniture promote the well -being of the older generation.

common activities strengthen the cooperation

Senior work not only promotes participation and integration. It also offers solutions for everyday problems and supports the health of senior citizens. Common excursions and activities make a valuable contribution to improving the quality of life and combating loneliness. These aspects are important to actively involve the elderly in the community.
