Social Activities
Everyone benefits from meeting other people and taking part in social activities
Not only do shared activities and positive relationships contribute to our wellbeing, but they also improve our brain health too. According to the Global Council on Brain Health’s 2017 report, “older people who are more socially engaged and have larger social networks tend to have a higher level of cognitive function”.
Life events, such as bereavement, ill health, lack of mobility and confidence, and retirement can all contribute to reduced social networks, making it more difficult to stay active socially. Our social activity support service is tailored to our clients’ individual needs, and we can assist with overcoming many of the challenges older people face with socializing.
Here we take a closer look at why social activities are so beneficial and how Caremark can help you or your loved one meet friends, try something new and reap the rewards.
