In a bold move to foster community spirit and improve well-being, Gibraltar is set to kick off Golden Week 2025, an initiative aimed squarely at tackling the growing issue of senior loneliness. The week-long program will feature a series of inclusive activities designed to connect older residents with each other and the wider community. Organisers have highlighted the importance of social interaction in enhancing health outcomes and preventing the psychological impacts of isolation among seniors.

Key events during the week will include:

  • Intergenerational workshops encouraging exchange of skills and stories
  • Community dining experiences bringing neighbours together to share meals
  • Outdoor wellness activities like gentle yoga and guided nature walks
  • Digital literacy sessions to help seniors stay connected online
