Showing appreciation to the elderly

Kopanya Women’s Group and Sanca brought tears to the eyes of the elderly after they were treated to a massage by youth of the community.

 

Dinah Jones said she was very impressed with the treatment she received.

“I don’t have time for self at home but today my body feels happy and I’m just excited,” said Jones.

May Kroats from Kopanya Women’s Group said she didn’t have enough time to show her mother appreciation but advises youth to appreciate their parents.

“Even if it is not your grandparents or parents you must show love to the elderly.

“Appreciate what you’ve got while they are still with you,” said Kroats.

She said the elderly are often forgotten or neglected but it is them who pray for the young generation and guide them.

Youth had their hands full on Friday when more people streamed in for a massage.

“I’m so happy to see more and more people coming.

“It would be nice to see every organisation in Eldorado Park to spoil our grandparents,” said Kroats.

The youth who gave massages were praised by the elderly.

“We love you for the good work you are doing, keep it up and may God bless you for this,”
