How Silver Sunday Helps Older People
According to Age UK, 12% of older people never leave their home for social events due to various barriers. Silver Sunday aims to combat this by offering free or low-cost activities that promote social connections and engagement.
Silver Sunday events include social elements to help guests make new friends and feel connected. These events, such as film screenings, workshops, and cultural visits, aim to break social isolation among older individuals.
With initiatives like ‘Silver Salisbury’ and ‘Silver Week’, Silver Sunday has expanded to offer year-round programs with diverse activities for older people. These events serve as a bridge for reconnecting older individuals with their communities and discovering new interests.
