Sport and exercise are very important for a healthy life and quality of life (in old age). Our health is one of the most important prerequisites for being able to lead a self-determined and active life in old age. That is why it is never too late to become active. This is precisely the aim of a cooperation between the Department for Work with the Elderly in the Office for Social Work and the Wiesbaden Sports Office. The initiative focuses on promoting exercise and prevention in old age and aims to raise awareness among senior citizens and encourage them to see exercise as an important resource for maintaining physical, mental and social health.

The event on 1.9.2025 is the kick-off and would like to raise awareness of the topic with information stands and lectures and make the Everyday Fitness Test better known in Wiesbaden.
