Give lonely seniors some time for Christmas

Since my childhood I play in a flute circle. We sometimes play in church services and at Christmas time regularly in nursing homes.

When you start talking to the old people, you often hear that they have no relatives (or those who live nearby) they can pick up or visit at Christmas. Especially at this festival, I find that particularly sad.

That's why my fellow flutists and I decided this year that each of us visit some of these old people on the holidays and have a little something to drink coffee and above all a bit of time to tell, because that's what people often do not have someone listening to them

There are so many days off, especially this Christmas, when you have time for one or two hours.

It does not have to be the nursing home, maybe you have an old neighbor or an old neighbor, who is happy.
