The association:
Les Petits Frères des Pauvres accompanies seniors who suffer from isolation, giving priority to the most disadvantaged. Through concrete actions, the association is active in creating social links and helping seniors regain a taste for life.
Supported project 2 (2021): Le Jardin des Part'âges
The project consists of the rehabilitation of the outdoor space of the Maris Stella Holiday Home in the Pas de Calais region into a sensory garden for the beneficiaries: isolated elderly people and/or those in social difficulty. The objective is to (re)create a link with the Earth and to take advantage of the benefits of Nature. The vacations are a break from everyday life. They are an opportunity to feel and sense in order to live better. It is also a space of discovery, openness and exchange and intergenerational meetings are organized.
The Foundation financed part of the development of the sensory garden.
