We started The Senior Station because we saw a need for senior citizens to stay engaged and not feel forgotten or marginalized.
Each week at The Senior Station we remind our members that age is just a number, and each day is worth looking forward to because many care for them.”
The Senior Station has been in operation since 2018 and the first session was held on the 16th of January of the same year.
The hallmark of its program is the warmth and care given by the organisers to its members.
In difficult times and during the pandemic, the work didn't stop, the programs were moved online where it was made easy to reach out to each member.
That social connection is the true success of The Senior Station.
