It’s been six mon­ths sin­ce Day­ti­me Com­mu­ni­ty Cen­tre be­gan ope­ra­ting in “Okrąglak.” It is the only pla­ce in Zamość whe­re twi­ce a week se­nior ci­ti­zens are gi­ven an op­por­tu­ni­ty to spend some qu­ali­ty time in the com­pa­ny of vo­lun­te­ers, in­te­re­sting gu­ests and other se­nior mem­bers.

Plan­ned ac­ti­vi­ties in­c­lu­de:

• Music therapy with Tadeusz Flor
• Book therapy with Iwona Proczka
• Culture therapy with Marzena Miśkiewicz
• Arts and crafts classes with Dorota Nowosad

What is more, lec­tu­res on sa­fe­ty and se­nior he­alth are or­ga­ni­zed in the Cen­tre. Su­per­vi­sed by Ewa Popław­ska, the Cen­tre was bro­ught to life as a part of two pro­jects jo­in­tly fi­nan­ced by the Fo­un­da­tion “Re­mem­bran­ce, Re­spon­si­bi­li­ty and Fu­tu­re” and The Mi­ni­stry of La­bo­ur and So­cial Po­li­cy. The pro­ject’s cre­ators and co­or­di­na­tors are Ewa Szcze­pańska and Kry­sty­na Rybińska-Smyk. Other forms of ac­ti­vi­ties in­c­lu­de per­so­nal de­ve­lop­ment and me­mo­ry tra­ining (10 par­ti­ci­pants) as well as com­pu­ter work­shops (10 par­ti­ci­pants). The Cen­tre also ar­ran­ges cul­tu­ral outings (the la­test one was the scre­ening of “Anna Ka­re­ni­na”). High at­ten­dan­ce and the sa­tis­fac­tion of the se­nior mem­bers at­test to the im­por­tan­ce of such forms of sup­port.
