Age Clubs Cartagena, a total of 43, returned to cite this year's Labor Day VII Aging Federation organized by the Department of Social Services.

The National Distance Education University (UNED) this morning welcomed the meeting which was attended by 200 of our elders to address key mature healthy and active.

Mary Navarro was one of the veterans of this meeting that repeats itself year after year. Their 94 years will pose no obstacle and demonstrated his full schedule of activities of all kinds such as gymnastics or roll, among others. I do everything my age not prevent me from doing what I want and what is important is that we had fun together, commented today Cartagena.

This young at heart is another example that there is much life after 60 this morning as explained in this lecture. What I propose in these activities is to encourage older they can continue to enjoy and participate actively in society to improve their quality of life, clarified the Councillor for Social Care, Antonio Calderon, who inaugurated the conference early next to the president of the Federation of Senior Citizens Clubs, Mary Beteta.

LECTURE

Ageing in the Mediterranean was the first of three talks were held and running by Juan Dionisio Avilés, geriatrician Arrixaca Hospital.

The psicogerontólogo Gerontology Institute of the Mediterranean, Juan Antonio Salmerón, was responsible for the second conference was how older are in the region of Murcia.

Of the problems associated with memory in the elderly would last for talks with Inmaculada Navarro, psychologist Cognitive Stimulation Program for the Elderly Social Services.

Thus, higher learning to get more out of life, to enjoy old age with dignity and independence, relating to others and participating in the activities offered to this group, either gymnastics, dance, or theater technologies.

Most participants returned to be in these days is that for a minority it was the first time attending. Carmen Garcia knows this business well, and not missing years this event. Accompanied by good friends (one of them has attended seven editions), enjoys these talks each time covering a different topic that is of interest to this group. We love coming here, learn a little of everything, and even gave us little details like a piggy bank I keep fondly, Carmen had today.

It is a good way to learn some of topical issue that could help them help in their day to day, Mary Beteta added.

Next year they will return with the same enthusiasm and desire of these latest editions, but with other matters to address aging and other clues to discover.
