This is very encouraging to watch. Treating people as individuals at all ages is important to ensure that we don’t lump people together and dismiss them as ‘other’ . Groups are not everybody’s thing but can help to link up and share resources. We all need to look out for each other and need to be a bit nosey if we think someone is isolated and/or may open to abuse. Abuse can be direct, taking advantage of a person or their assesses or rough handling. Or indirect such as neglect of basic needs . Supporting people to not ‘self’ neglect is a valuable thing to do and something society benefits as a whole from.
