Elderly care in Spain: an example from l'Alfàs del Pi
Spain is famous for its warm climate, rich culture and hospitality, which makes it one of the favorite places for pensioners and the elderly. Especially the multinational town of l'Alfàs del Pi on the Costa Blanca deserves attention for its efforts to support the elderly.
Yesterday, an event dedicated to the elderly took place at l'Alfàs del Pi, which was attended by more than 200 people. This event was organized by the local Department of Social Welfare and included paella treats, music and dancing, which emphasized the importance of active and joyful spending time by the older generation.
Last week was also marked by a Socio-Cultural Week for the Elderly, during which various activities were held to promote active aging and a healthy lifestyle. Participants could take part in dances, lectures on health, as well as other cultural and educational events.
