Activities dementia and age-related depression

During the euPrevent Senior Friendly Communities (SFC) project, a buffet of activities was drawn up, consisting of 15 concrete, existing prevention activities, aimed at: elderly people with dementia and age-related depression and their carers. The activities can be placed within the framework of ‘Active Ageing‘ of the World Health Organisation. The three pillars of ‘Active Ageing’ are: Health, Participation and Safety

These activities will continue to be used in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands. In the overview below you will find a short description per activity. Would you like more information about deploying one of these activities in your municipality? Then send an e-mail to the contact person mentioned. Background information per activity can be found in the ‘Information brochure Activities‘.
