Undiscovered Olympic hopes aims to promote the well-being of people accommodated in the nursing home for adults with Dimentia in Kazanlak through table tennis. It is organized by the Compassion Alzheimer Bulgaria foundation.
The practice of table tennis among people with cognitive disorders, especially in the early stages of the disease, has a proven beneficial effect on health. In the Nursing home in Kazanlak, there are 10 men who are at an early stage of the disease, in good physical activity, have been active and have a strong desire to practice this type of sport.
The home does not have such equipment, and regular practice can significantly improve both the physical and cognitive function of consumers, mood and well-being and their overall quality of life, as well as reduce the stress and strain of caregivers.
