DO YOU HELP THEM OR DO THEY HELP YOU?

• We make them feel they’re still useful

• We don’t leave them falling down into lonliness and a depression

• We counterbalance their physical-limitation

• We make them understand that they still have a future

ELDERLY PEOPLE & ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP

• Nowadays elderly people show even more energy and commitment

• A national organization which improves an active ageing is:

• It undertakes to:

• Contrast every kind of social exclusion
• Improve the quality of the life
• Spread the culture and the solidarity.

EVERY AGE HAS A VALUE EACH PERSON HAS A LIFE’S PROJECT TO BECOME A RESOURCE FOR THE OTHERS AND HIMSELF
