GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY

Residential situations exclusively for retired folk should not exist!

At Sanilles we aim for about 20% of our visitors to include senior citizens, as both permanent residential members and regular visitors. We hope to provide them with a variety of social activities. For example:-

In The Gardens: light tasks include seed planting and transplanting, pruning, taking cuttings, harvesting, dead heading, and seed collecting.

In Residential Areas: arranging flowers, helping conserve home grown produce and drying flowers, sewing and creative decorating for special occasions.

With Administration: Editing and proof-reading, translating, receiving and guiding visitors, designing park and property improvements.

Workshops and Courses: Short courses on a whole range of cultural, craft and artistic pursuits, giving the opportunity to express and develop latent talents that life's busy-ness excluded.

The senior Sanilles members will be the godparents, contributing their life experience to the overall situation, but also continuing to learn new skills, while enjoying a true sense of purpose and dignity.

Health-Care will be close at hand as the thermal spa will include medical and therapeutic staff.
