Health and sports program for seniors
The CLS, in partnership with the solidarity company Eté Indien, will deploy 4 physical activity and cognitive stimulation programs funded by the Conference of Financiers on the municipalities of Greater Besançon. The fight against a sedentary lifestyle is also at the heart of the program of the Blue Week (September 25 to October 6) organized by the CCAS of Besançon and dedicated to our elders.
This program called MEM’HOP is supervised by qualified APA (adapted physical activity) teachers. It is intended for independent seniors living at home over the age of 60 and consists of 24 weekly sessions to combat a sedentary lifestyle and stimulate the 5 pillars of cognition.
