The City Council of Molina de Segura launches the project to revitalize centers for the elderly by 2019 (15/02/2019)

The City of Molina de Segura, through the Department of Social Welfare, has launched the project of revitalization of the centers for the elderly for the months of February to December 2019, aimed at the largest population of the municipality with the aim of improve the quality of life of the elderly through activities that encourage active aging.

According to the Municipal Register, the number of people over 65 years of age rises to 8,702 in 2018, with more women (4,740) than men (3,962).

In addition, it accounts for 12.3% of the total population of the municipality (70,964) in 2018.

The project was presented at a press conference on Friday, February 15, by the Mayor of Molina de Segura, Esther Clavero Mira, and the Councilor for Social Welfare, Ángel Navarro García.

According to the Councilor for Social Welfare, "the aging of the population is a real fact, the increase in life expectancy, shortening of working life and early retirement are the main reasons for the growth of the elderly population. As the environment where we grow, live, socialize and relate is a key element during our life, an environment rich in stimuli and possibilities will provide us with a healthy and quality life, before us we have a challenge that is compatible with longevity with personal autonomy and social participation, the safest way to avoid isolating oneself is to be able to link people and everything that happens in the environment, to enjoy relationships with others ".

The group of older people has more difficulties than any other group to access municipal services and facilities, almost always concentrated in the population nucleus.

"It is essential the access of all the population, and especially the elderly, to municipal resources, so it is necessary to bring to their centers those activities that are essential in the development of active aging," explains Angel Navarro.

The budget of the project is 14,850 euros (excluding VAT), from the budget item Elderly Activity, which has a budget allocation of 30,000 euros, according to budgets for 2018. It is managed through the company Jonatan Riquelme Fernández, with the coordination of a social worker and an administrative assistant, of the Senior Unit of the Department of Social Welfare.

The activities take place from February 15 to December 2019.

In Molina de Segura there are currently 18 groups of seniors activity, located in different neighborhoods and districts, with different social contexts.

In this way, the constitution of the Club Map for the Elderly has to do with the opportunities, nature and idiosyncrasy of the different entities.

These must be corrected, working individually with each one of them.
