Elderly Challenge - Observation 2

On the public places, there is not much handrails and other elderly-friendly items. It seems to be unwelcoming. It will be better if we have some simple handrails and braille on the floor. Even there is no handicap toilet, it will
ok to have normal elderly-friendly toilets.

Elderly Challenge - Observation 1


The elderly may feel very lonely in his/her house like a prisoner in their own house. That is why most of the seniors just stray around without anything to do. Some of them even smoke / drink or sit at the tea shop trying to drink a tea for an hour  to pass their time. It could be really miserable for them. So, as the students of SST, as a class, we would like to plan some fun activities for seniors to participate and enjoy winning.
