Open senior activities

The open senior activity of the city of Riihimäki is an activity open to everyone and free of charge. Pre-registration is not required and you can come along when it suits you.

We also want to reach those seniors for whom the thresholds of leaving home have already grown large. Therefore, activities are organized where the seniors live. For those who need help and support to participate, we try to organize escort help.

When you need company, refreshment for mind and body, or activity in your everyday life, open senior activities are for you! Or maybe you have an aging loved one for whom participation in senior activities would be a good thing.

If you can't find an option in our activity that suits you or you need support in finding a suitable activity, you can fill out the form a well-being prescription. After this, the Tepsivä instructor will contact you and help you find the right way to participate in senior activities.

  • Do you miss content or meaningfulness in your everyday life? Or Do you feel lonely? By filling out the well-being prescription, you will receive information from the Tepsivä instructor about activities aimed at the elderly and, if necessary, support for participation. You can also fill the well-being prescription on behalf of another person, if you have received permission from that person.

    Tepsivä instructors are the activity instructors of the city of Riihimäki and the Kotokartano Foundation. You can also make a wellness prescription request by phone to the Tepsivä instructor.

    After receiving a well-being prescription, the Tepsivä instructor prepares a well-being plan based on his needs with the prescription client. Tepsivä activity is free of charge and all related discussions are confidential.

    If necessary, the Tepsivä instructor can look for a solution to the prescription customer's situation together with other Tepsivä team members. This requires the prescription customer's separate consent.

  • Would you like to go on a refreshing car trip to a museum or a cafe? Or Do you know someone elderly who would enjoy a fun ride around their old home or in a neighboring town?

    Volunteers offer free, refreshing car trips to the elderly. The purpose of the trips is to bring variety and joy to everyday life and alleviate the experience of loneliness. The trip is usually 1-3 hours long, and its content is planned taking into account the wishes of the elderly. Car trips also bring joy to the volunteer.

    What kind of road trip would you like to go on? Get in touch, tell us your wishes or ask for more information about the car tour from activity director Reija Lumivuoko. Contact information can be found at the bottom of the page.

    You can find out more about the car excursion activity as well On the Automies website.
