Nutritional Awareness and Recreational Activities for Senior Citizens at Prem Niketan

On August 23, 2023, at Prem Niketan, the MSc HSc Sem IV students held a Nutritional Awareness and Recreational Activities event in honour of Senior Citizen Day. The MSc HSc Nutrition students led a discussion about dietary and lifestyle modifications in relation to common disorders like blood pressure, diabetes, etc. They have created posters to familiarise people with the advice needed for the lifestyle adjustment. They concentrated on doing yoga, going to bed early, and engaging in stress-free activities.

Then, in the other half, MSc HSc Human Development students planned entertainment for them in the form of recreational activities. Students have provided them with song lyrics for their arranged Antakshari performance. There were about 20 senior citizens, 13 students, and 2 teachers present. They receive games for the center besides those from the department. Then everyone had refreshments (Lassi and Samosa) at the end.   The director, Asha Tak, thanked us profusely for setting up this leisure activity for them.  Everyone had a great time.
