    Nice initiative DNO! I applaud you and the DCA for shining a positive light on our most revered group of people, our elderly.

    Note though that our ageing population needs special attention, love, kindness and care every day of the year, not only during the Month of the Elderly.

    Copious LOVE to every elderly person in Dominica and throughout the world.
