Bringing Joy to Our Seniors: Free Weekly Elderly Activities in Penang by Seniora 活伴

At Seniora 活伴, we believe that ageing should be active, social, and filled with joy. That’s why we launched a series of free weekly activities for seniors at our Island Glades centre in Penang—from April 22 to May 31, 2025. And what a heartwarming journey it’s been so far!

💡 Why We Started Free Elderly Activities in Penang

Many older adults in our community live alone or have limited social interaction. Our mission is to change that by providing meaningful engagement through structured programs. These activities aren’t just fun—they promote cognitive stimulation, social connection, and emotional well-being, which are all vital aspects of active ageing.

🀄 Mahjong Sessions – A Weekly Favourite!

Every Wednesday afternoon, our center buzzes with excitement as seniors gather for our Mahjong交流时光. It’s not just a game—it’s a social ritual. We’ve seen friendships blossom, laughter shared, and even some healthy competition among our regulars.

👉 When: Every Wednesday, 3pm – 5pm

👉 Where: Seniora 活伴, Island Glades, Penang

Seniors are playing mahjong under the guidance of Seniora's assistant.

🌸 Sensory Stimulation Activity – A Gentle Way to Reconnect

Our 感官刺激活动 (Sensory Stimulation Activity) every Friday offers a calm and enriching experience, especially beneficial for seniors with early dementia or mobility challenges. From scented playdough to textured art, each session is designed to awaken the senses and spark joy.

👉 When: Every Friday, 10am – 12pm

👉 Where: Seniora 活伴, Island Glades, Penang

Elderly are joining sit down activities like music tempo and crafts to train their fine motor skills.
