What if today was the start of a new friendship with your neighbor?
To mark International Day of Older Persons, the Ministry of Family, Solidarity, Living Together, and Hospitality, the Police, and GERO are launching a campaign to create or strengthen neighborhood ties, particularly with older people.
A small gesture can create strong bonds: dare to meet someone new!
