For the elderly

Culture and leisure for the elderly

The City of Helsinki offers a variety of options for the daily lives of the elderly. We all hope to lead a meaningful daily life: for some, this may involve, for example, exercising in local nature, taking part in cultural activities or spending time with peers.
