Description

To combat the social isolation of elderly people, the project “Grandma comes out of the box” aims to break age-related stereotypes, promote active ageing, improve the social and community integration of 75 elderly people and empower and improve the self-image of 300 seniors. The project will conduct plastic arts, sewing and pottery workshops for the elderly and the professionals who work with them and employ elderly people in a sewing atelier.
