Christmas in Milan Meeting Centres

Both of the Meeting Centres in Milan prepared a Christmas party in which representatives of the Municipality of Milan and of the Don Gnocchi Foundation were present together with caregivers, relatives of people with dementia and also representatives of the community. Both of the parties were a success!

 

The Christmas party in the District 4 Meeting Centre involved a representative of the Municipality of Milan, Dr. Farina of the Don Gnocchi Foundation, representatives of “Il Tralcio” Foundation, representatives of the hosting CSRC (Social-Recreative-Cultural Centre), people with dementia, their caregivers and relatives. A Christmas market took place with handmade objects made by the participants of the centre. The proceeds from the sale will be used for the centre.

 

The Christmas party in District 7 was organized by caregivers together with patients with dementia; people with dementia prepared with the help of the psycho-motor-rehabilitation therapist a Christmas dance as a gift for the operators of the centre and for their caregivers. It was a big surprise! Caregivers prepared for each participant of the Center and for the operators a personalized gift that was delivered directly from Santa Claus!
