Support for Elderly Mobility in Sinan-gun
Sinan-gun is actively promoting the 'Elderly Walking Aid Support Project' to ensure safe mobility and a vibrant life for elderly individuals with mobility difficulties.
This initiative targets seniors aged 65 and older who face challenges in walking and have financial constraints in obtaining assistive devices.
This year, a total of 106 elderly individuals have received walking aids.
Notably, through collaboration with the Sinan Welfare Foundation, the personal cost for recipients has been significantly reduced.
Basic livelihood recipients can receive the aid for free, while others only need to contribute 5,000 won, resulting in high satisfaction among the elderly.
Walking aids not only assist in mobility but also help seniors participate in outdoor activities and social engagements, enabling a more independent daily life.
This project stands as a representative model of customized welfare in Sinan-gun.
Since 2018, a total of 800 million won in municipal funds and 100 million won in donations have been invested, supporting approximately 5,200 elderly individuals with walking aids, serving as a strong 'bridge' for them.
