Seniors’ Friendship Club

Joy to the soul and happiness to the heart.

Two seniors embracing

Hello! We are Janetta and Aidas, the facilitators of the Seniors Friendship Club.

We invite everyone who feels lonely or lacks warm and heartfelt communication. Here, you will meet people with similar goals and concerns. Many face the same challenges as you. You will gain an invaluable gift — the opportunity to share life with other people.

In a cozy and safe environment, you can express your feelings and experiences, receive support, share your dreams, and gain the determination to realize them. You will try new things, create, and share your experiences, transforming your life for the better.

Who is this group for?

  • For those who value well-being, safe communication, and support.
  • For those looking to make new friends.
  • For those seeking emotional and physical relief, learning to release stress and anxiety.
  • For those who wish to receive attention, warmth, and care.

Friends make good times better and bad times easier.

The duration of the meeting is 2 hours. Each session also includes 5–10 minute breaks, during which we do light physical exercises and learn simple self-defense skills, as well as the basics of karate. Feel free to join us – an interesting and diverse program awaits!

Participation details:

  • Meetings are held weekly on Tuesdays from 14:00 to 15:00 at Tapiolan Kansalaistoiminnankeskus, Espoo.
  • Address: Kauppamiehentie 6, Espoo.
  • Groups consist of 6–8 people.

Join us and find a warm-hearted community where everyone feels valued.

Welcome!

To join, you need to attend a preliminary interview where we will get to know each other, explain the group, and answer your questions. Our goal is to explore your motivations, needs, and expectations.
