You are invited to sit and chat with residents from Coleman Care Centre on the symbolic green bench inside the library.
This event is part of the #ElderWisdom campaign, a heartfelt initiative aimed at bridging generations and fostering meaningful conversations within our community.
#ElderWisdom is more than just a campaign; it's a movement that encourages society to tap into the profound knowledge, experiences, and insights our seniors have to offer. Every year, we bring the iconic green bench to public spaces, inviting community members to sit and engage in enriching conversations with our elders. This simple act of sharing time and stories has sparked countless moments of connection, learning, and mutual respect, reinforcing the value of our seniors in today’s fast-paced world.
