In Bormes-les-Mimosas, Blue Week was marked by moments of intergenerational sharing, where board games and bingo brought seniors and children together.

The day was punctuated by wonderful moments of intergenerational exchange around board games. The morning began on a very playful note. As part of Blue Week — the national event dedicated to valuing seniors and promoting intergenerational links — children from the after-school program welcomed seniors from the « Bien Vieillir » center to share moments of complicity over board games. A time of listening imagined by the CCAS, filled with laughter and transmission, where the age difference faded in favor of the pleasure of playing together.
In the afternoon, the destination was the EHPAD (nursing home) of the Braquehais house, Salvation Army Foundation, for joyful games of bingo! These events, regularly organized by the team of Cécile Pettinato from the Youth Education service, help create precious bridges between the young residents of Bormes and the elders of the commune.
