A lot of us may not realise, but old age comes with its own set of problems. We all are just way too busy in our hectic schedules to notice that our parents or grandparents may feel neglect or simply unproductive. So, on the occasion of World Senior Citizens’ Day, which is on 21st August, make your parents join these amazing senior citizens groups in the city. These groups enable seniors to find people of their age group, share their thoughts and engage in productive activities together.
