“With the wind in gray hair” is a small collaborative project that joins forces of 6 water sports organizations in 6 countries for 18 months. The clubs consortium worked on activating senior citizens (over 60 years old) through sailing and other activities (not only sport related) in their clubs.
The main part of the project was a Study Visit in HORN Krakow and working with the club’s Seniors Activity Center to see how they work and influence the lives of local seniors. Here you can enjoy the video compilation of the activity and get inspired:
During the meeting, the project partners conducted tests and evaluations of the activities they had planned for seniors. This process likely involved observing seniors participating in the activities, gathering feedback from them, and assessing how well the activities met their intended goals and objectives.
We have also created toolkits in 7 languages to promote activities to seniors and give ideas what you may also do! Check out the project’s website to download it in Polish, Greek, Turkish, Portugese, Italian or get directly from here the English , German version for You & your clubs.
Any questions, further recommendations or just hearing from your experiences would be a pleasure for us to hear from.
Have fun and remember : “Life begins at 60!” 😉
