The Centre for Cultural Activities (CKD) was implementing the campaign “Home alone for holidays” as part of a project funded in the field of social and humanitarian significance of the City of Zagreb for 2020.

With this campaign, we wanted to encourage the citizens of the City of Zagreb to creatively involve their loved ones and the elderly in the celebration of the upcoming Christmas holidays, while respecting all epidemiological measures to keep our seniors protected and safe.

Older people are the most vulnerable group at the time of the COVID-19 virus pandemic and this year they will have the loneliest Christmas so far. Many of them will spend these holidays alone at home, and it is up to us to include them as much as possible and to make their daily holiday activities fulfilled with love at this lonely time when families are usually together.”

– said Tomislav Goleš Babić, creative producer at CKD and Andreja Rukavina, project manager at CKD.

On CKD’s social networks, you can find short tips and ideas on how to help the elderly not to be alone in the house this unusual Christmas.

The project is co-financed by the City of Zagreb.
