Elderly Sector Network Carnival 2015 was a day of activities organised by Risk Management Society for the senior citizens to have a day out from the homes that they are in, have fun and do something that is different from their usual activities. The carnival reached out to more than 300 senior citizens, and had 600 volunteers helping out.
The opportunity to venture out of the homes was welcomed by the elderly as they had an enjoyable day celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, where they participated in a lantern-making competition. Rounding up the event were stage performances, where the elderly dressed up to perform, and food stalls comprising of delicious local food.
A photobooth was also on site to print photos that were enclosed in a photo frame which the elderly could keep as a memento.
