Iryna Nazarova, Kostopil

Iryna is an employee of the Central City Library in Kostopil, Rivne region. She successfully combines this work with volunteering at the Kostopil district branch of the Ukrainian Red Cross, where she works with older adults in the Active Longevity Club. Her responsibilities include planning and hosting events, as well as organising training sessions, including digital education.

The club currently has more than 50 members, with the oldest being 92 years old. “People who are looking for social interaction usually come here,” says Iryna. “Those who visit often bring their friends to the next event. Many people meet here and continue to stay in touch and meet outside of the club.”
