Impact assessment on population health due to aging, released by the European Commission
The Giessen Seniors Fair 2025 is set to take place on Saturday, October 11, at the Congress Hall, from 10 am to 4 pm. This annual event, organized by The Round Table - Aging in Giessen, aims to foster a new culture of aging and provide a platform for exchange and networking among actors who offer services for and with older people.
The fair is directed towards senior citizens, their relatives, and interested professionals from the region. Admission to the event is free, making it accessible to all. The motto of the fair, "Growing Older Together - Informed, Engaged, and Active", encapsulates the spirit of the day.
The Round Table - Aging in Giessen is the local alliance of institutions, associations, and honorary initiatives that dedicates itself to a main topic every year. This year, the focus is on the Giessen Seniors Fair 2025. The organization typically organizes the lecture series "Aging in Giessen - cloudy to cheerful" and the senior exhibition alternately each year.
Independence and mobility are at the heart of the offers at the fair. Services like the Repair Café for small repairs and the Rollator Parkour for tips on moving safely with a rollator will be available. A small round trip can be undertaken with the rickshaw, adding a fun element to the day.
The extensive exhibition program will feature information on various topics such as health, leisure, care, daily living aids, safety, insurance, and funerals. Local initiatives and associations will present their offers for senior citizens in the Street of Engagement.
Professional service providers will offer consulting services and provide helpful tips directly on-site. The event will begin with an opening ceremony by Social Commissioner Francesco Arman and the Giessen Senior Choir. A sign language interpreter can be requested for individual accompaniment in the exhibition. Refreshments will be available at a bistro in the fair.
The goal of The Round Table - Aging in Giessen is to ensure the dignity and right to a self-determined life for older people. The fair is a testament to this mission, providing a space where older adults can engage, learn, and connect with resources and services tailored to their needs.
So, mark your calendars for October 11, and join the Giessen Seniors Fair 2025. Let's grow older together, informed, engaged, and active!
