Safety Talk for Seniors

Organised by the Concello de Valga with the Dirección Xeral de Tráfico (DGT) and the Garda Civil, the session focuses on preventing pedestrian collisions, especially among older people. It covers safe walking on roads and pavements and safer street crossing, with attention to visibility, light-coloured clothing and reflective items, including age-related changes in reflexes and visual and hearing capacity. Reflective vests are distributed to attendees. Prior registration is required by requesting the corresponding form from the Concello or the Auditorio Municipal. The event is also open to other local residents interested in basic measures to prevent accidents and pedestrian collisions.
