We kindly invite you to participate in the Senior Week events.

 

October 1 International Day of Older Persons is celebrated. In this way, the public's attention is drawn to the problems of aging, and respect for the aging person is developed.

"Old age is a kind of personality renaissance, because free time blossoms with new hobbies, work and achievements," says German theologian Anselm Gruen.

It is especially important for older people not to fall on their own and not to be excluded from social, political, cultural life, to maintain an active, healthy lifestyle, to divide time wisely and meaningfully: for themselves, family, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren.

It is a huge priceless asset to have someone around who you can lean on, ask for help or advice, help, talk to, who you can listen to and be listened to.

Say: I am with you, mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, brother, sister, how good it is to live your youth in old age.

Or simply - to look into each other's eyes and be silent together.
