Why is it important?
Retirement is an eventful phase in everyone’s life. For some people, retirement is a time for enjoying leisure, self-realisation and new hobbies. However, many seniors report a sense of emptiness, a lack of meaningful activities and a feeling of loneliness. In this new stage of life, it is important to take care of emotional health, discover a supportive community and maintain social bonds. A long and happy life demands an active social life and, most importantly, good health.
