Trainees conjure up feel -good moments for seniors in Neubrandenburg!

In day care "Kervita" on the Datzeberg, the cooperation is redefined. Here there is a voluntary cosmetic supply for seniors, which is anything but usual. The campaign, part of the "Together instead of lonely" project, takes two hours and enables the elderly to enjoy relaxing treatments, while young trainees of the regional vocational education center for administration and business in Neubrandenburg (RBB WUV NB) demonstrate their skills. This Initiative is not only a look behind the scenes of the hairdressing and cosmetic training, but also a warm offer that can relieve the often stressful loneliness in old age.

During the last event, 15 seniors were able to look forward to basic facial treatments, facial massages, manicure and hand massages. The calm atmosphere, supported by gentle music, ensured that some senior fell into a well -deserved sleep during treatment. The event is called "well -being", and it is not just about beauty care, but also about creating encounters and new friendships. Headmistress Julia Dachack, who launched the project, would like to teach far beyond the regular school material and convey communication and social skills to the prospective specialists. The seniors gratefully accepted the offers and showed themselves touched by the loving care that gave them.

commitment to a better society

The idea of the project, which was recently awarded the MV 2025 volunteer award, aims to promote contact between the generations. Volunteering is very important. This is an important part of counteracting the feeling of loneliness that is particularly concerned with seniors without level of care. In addition to the project, there are volunteers in many cities who offer visiting services in order to combat social isolation and to return a piece of participation in social life to those affected. These volunteers offer everyday walks to discussions to reading aloud and tell everything that delights the heart.

In Neubrandenburg it shows how important such projects are. The team's great rush of seniors has prompted the team to think about a division of the events into two days in the future. In addition, it is planned to include hairdressing trainees in future projects, which will then take care of homeless people. The demand for such events is great and you can tell: "Together instead of lonely" the nerve of the time hits.

The school social work, which makes these valuable projects possible, is threatened by uncertain funding. Therefore, it remains to be seen how the initiative will develop and whether the volunteer forces can remain so active in the future. One thing is certain: the commitment of young people for their older fellow citizens is an enrichment for both sides and creates moments of wellbeing that are often neglected in the hectic world.
