The FarmElder Story so far…
The FarmElder project’s primary goal is to demonstrate how can effectively meet identified needs across Ireland, Portugal, Germany, Slovenia, and Belgium. Through this project all partners will collaborate to delve into the challenges faced by elderly individuals and explore emerging social farming interventions in their respective nations. The project yields 14 compelling case studies, along with comprehensive reports detailing the issues affecting elderly individuals in each participating country.
In May 2023 the first Learning and Training Activity (LTTA) took place in Kenmare, Ireland. The high attendance rate of local and transnational attendees was a testament to the work of South Kerry Partnership and the excellent work they are doing to progress social farming for the elderly in their area.
