Research, experts and real-life stories suggest that the way to healthy ageing is to live active and ensure holistic well-being beyond physical health. Emotional and social well-being are intrinsic pillars of healthy ageing. A 2017 survey by Agewell Foundation revealed that every second elderly feels lonely. Second to diminishing physical health – loneliness and lack of engagement opportunities are the key concerns facing an older adult. We firmly believe that active ageing is the most promising and economical form of preventive healthcare and this belief forms the core of our work.
