Altea is marking the month for the elderly with a special programme of talks with the theme ‘How to age healthily’. The council announced the programme for the month of October on October 3.
The programme will kick off with a talk entitled ‘Nutrition for the elderly’ on October 6 at 6pm in Altea Social Centre.
