Niciodata Singur – Prietenii vârstnicilor Association has opened the first social centre for lonely elderly people in Romania

With the help of a partnership with Dr. Max Pharmacies, the social centre dedicated to seniors has been supporting different activities for 2 months now.

Thus, seniors who will visit the centre will be able to enjoy intergenerational activities, sports sessions adapted to their age, knitting workshops, foreign language courses, to promote the culture of volunteering in the life of seniors. In addition, to provide them with psychological support, the centre will organise support groups on various topics associated with loneliness, all supported by specialists in the field.

Social interaction plays a vital role for the physical and emotional health of seniors, and in Romania, old age is often about closed doors and isolation.
