By 2030, it is anticipated that one in four Singaporeans will be 65 or older. 

This demographic shift presents significant challenges, especially in addressing the issue of social isolation among the elderly, even those who reside with family members.

The multifaceted needs of the senior residents are primarily the following:

1.

Lack of Supportive Family Dynamics

Many senior live with family members but experience social isolation and unmet expectations for support, leading to social disconnection. By providing opportunities for seniors to socialise with the larger communities, our activities encourage cognitive and physical development, facilitate social connections and prevent loneliness.
