Tea party marked UN older persons day
The recent tea party to mark the UN International Day of Older Persons attracted a big attendance at the Kilcullen-based HQ of Home Instead Senior Care.
It also raised money for Age Action Ireland, and gave the staff at the office an opportunity to get to know other seniors in the community, says the business's MD Amanda Bohan. "The purpose of the day is to encourage people in the local community to celebrate older people and remind younger generations to make time for older people", she says.
At the event, special tea bag sets were on sale for €2, which went to support the Age Action project. Home-made cakes were provided by staff and their families.
