The European Commission Representation in Malta has produced a video on the experiences of a number of elderly people in Malta.
The production marks the European Year of active ageing and solidarity between generations.
There are over 87 million people aged 65 and over in the EU, more than 17% of the total population.
The objectives of the European Year, agreed between all the Member States of the EU, are to increase the level of awareness of active ageing, and to act as a stimulus to foster debate.
