Now, this topic need to relate to elderly .
This week, we were asked to act out to feel what the elderly feel and try putting ourselves in their shoes.
So, having a small discussion with groupmates to write persona about an elderly
and doing research by interviewing with this grandma.
She is 75 years old this year , working in NAFA. Husband passed away for 25 years and has one son. She do not have friends and during her free time, she would go to Chinatown.
She told us all she went in Singapore were Marina bay and Sentosa, not much things were said by her because she claimed that Singapore is too small. She like to go out but she said there is no places to go .
Suggestion
- More Places to sit down like what they have in Chinatown
- More activities create for them
Act it !
