Healthy Mind Days

In 2022, the "Decentralisation - Healthy Mind" project was born, with the aim of addressing the mental health needs of older people. To this end, we set up a network of partners in order to build a neighbourhood project with the participation of a large number of older people living in dispersed villages. Following on from this project, the first edition of the "Healthy Mind Days" was organised in 2022. The aim of these days is to play stimulating games and promote social interaction. In 2022, only participants from our municipality took part, as we wanted it to be a trial run for a project that was intended to become annual, based on a system of healthy competition, with the participation of other municipalities in the district of Coimbra. So, in 2023, we will be holding the 2nd edition of this event following a different logic, as we will be inviting all the municipalities in the district of Coimbra.
