For us happiness has no age no gender and no expiration date. The "Clowncare - Happiness has no age" project develops programs for institutionalized seniors valuing the role of the clown in gerontological contexts.

In the intervention teams are composed by two clowns interacting individually with seniors to bring humor and laughter through adapted Games, Comic interactions and informal conversations. Interventions have the duration of one hour, on an occasional, weekly or monthly basis.
