The George Municipality’s Community Services department launched the "Adopt a Granny" project on Friday 4 May hoping that this will be able to give the elderly help with dignity.
To add to the hype and encourage the elderly to be fit, the Adopt a Granny project kicked off with a march from Unity Park at the top of York Street to the Civic Centre.
The youth will be encouraged to assist senior citizens in their neighbourhood with the odd chore and to generally keep an eye out should they require help and assistance.
