Movement can be a lot more fun as a group but many seniors are unable to follow the intensity of a regular aerobics or other fitness class. SMART classes are designed for seniors whether they need to complete the exercises in a chair, are able to stand and move or require a balance between the two. VON will provide training and support for volunteers willing to lead a class in an apartment building, church or other facility close to where seniors live!
You can live in a building with lots of other people around and still be very lonely and isolated. A team of two group visiting leaders go into a building where a lot of seniors live and lead scheduled times of guided discussion. The aim is to assist them in getting to know one another and build friendships with those around them.
