Community Living Room for the Elderly
The municipality of Janakkala, in collaboration with the Janakkala parish, is piloting a community living room activity for the elderly in Turenki and Tervakoski in spring 2025. The goal is to establish a permanent collaboration with associations and to expand the activities to the villages as well.
The community living room activities are low-threshold, and an open meeting place for those over 65 years old. Participants can join without prior sign-up. Coffee is served with a voluntary coffee fee. The activities vary according to the wishes of the visitors, so you can also suggest activities!
