Age concern is a local community project that makes a difference in our local community Hamilton New Zealand. It provides a chance for our elderly people to speak up and feel young again."Don't wait till your eighty matey" was the phrase written on the calenders which our elderly people happily photo graphed for, thanks to the funding from WEL ENERGY TRUST we have made their lives happier. Age Concern is a community based not-for-profit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for older people.Elderly people feel like they are young again letting the calenders speak for them.

This organization was set up by a concerned group of people in Waikato, Hamilton.This Welfare council did these things because of the needs of elderly people.It was established in 1982 under the name of Welfare council.After four years which is about the time of 1986, the council decided to rename it to Age Concern Hamilton.

The need behind the project is so that the elderly people can remain safe and out of harm.This reminds me of a saying."It does not matter how old you look on the outside it is how you feel in the inside."You have no reasons or rights to be rude to the elderly people."They were old once to."

This project was very successful because the building is full of life from the old people. They enjoy it at this place and they find it comforting to know that some one cares.There are 34 of these councils all around New Zealand. I'm inspired by the dedication and determination of this council for going for what they believe in.
