Suncheon County is conducting 'outreach dementia awareness improvement education' for the healthy aging of the elderly.

The county's Dementia Relief Center announced that they will be operating dementia education and prevention exercise programs for 3,140 participants of the elderly job and social activity support project in 11 towns and townships in collaboration with Suncheon Senior Club from June 25 to July 18.

Starting from Bokheung-myeon to Suncheon-eup, the education will be held a total of 15 times at gymnasiums and welfare centers, focusing on reducing negative perceptions of dementia and emphasizing the importance of early screening and prevention.

The education is designed as a participatory form with dementia prevention exercises alongside theoretical lectures, allowing the elderly to experience and increase their understanding.

An official from the county stated, "Spreading the correct awareness about dementia is a task for the entire local community," and expressed, "We will continue with ongoing education to make Suncheon a worry-free community for dementia."
