  "account": "The Age Concern program in Fuengirola, Mijas, and Benalmadena offers a range of activities to help older residents connect with their local community. On Mondays and Tuesdays, visitors can participate in coffee mornings and book exchanges from 11am to 1pm at a facility on Calle Iglesia 44, Los Boliches. This provides an opportunity for friendly conversation and a chance to browse shared novels. Wednesdays feature gentle movement sessions, including seated exercises and Pilates, to help maintain mobility. Due to high demand, advance booking is required by contacting Ruth at +44 7966 948642. Thursday afternoons will soon host bingo and games sessions, with official start dates yet to be announced. Fridays offer welfare advice appointments from 10am to 2pm, providing direct guidance on personal or administrative matters. Weekly drop-in clubs run from September through June across several locations, including Chino Pekin Restaurant, Tenencia de Alcaldia, Pena Flamenca del Sur, and Bar Carmen. Loneliness can be a concern for older adults living far from friends and family, but this program offers welcoming spaces to build meaningful friendships, stay active, and access essential advice. For support or information, call the team at 0034 652 537 615, visit the website www.ageconcernfym.com, or email info@ageconcernfym.com.",
