Recreational stays for senior citizens
This year, the district is once again offering a trip to the North Sea island of Norderney to enable senior citizens from Waldeck-Frankenberg to enjoy a relaxing holiday. Interested parties are cordially invited to take part in autumn 2025. In order for the costs to be covered, people must be over the age of 65 and have a low income and assets. Low income is defined as 1,126 euros per month for single people and 1,523 euros per month for married couples, plus accommodation costs such as rent or home expenses.
In the case of married couples, the joint income is also taken as a basis if only one of the spouses wishes to participate in the recreational measure. If there are special reasons, senior citizens who have only reached the age of 60 can also be considered. This also applies to married couples if one of the partners has not yet reached the age of 65.
The three-week stay on Norderney is expected to take place from 1 to 22 November. The participants will be accommodated in the district's own holiday hotel "Haus Waldeck". Registrations are accepted by the Social Affairs Department on 05631 954-1218/ 954-1206 or by email at anja.vogel@lkwafkb.de.
