"Have you heard of dementia?" Xu Wenbo, a friendly messenger from the Dementia Friendship Organization and the Shanghai Jing'an Love Public Welfare Development Center, popularized the early manifestations of dementia to the elderly through vivid and interesting video clips, and taught the elderly to learn to do "finger exercises" for daily prevention.
Cao Xiong and Zeng Yi, the famous comedians of the Shanghai People's Burlesque Troupe, performed the specially choreographed dementia science parody "Health 99", and the elderly friends laughed from time to time. The two comedians were also hired as the captains of the Jiading District Geriatric Dementia Science Popularization Volunteer Service Team, and will continue to participate in the Geriatric Dementia Science Popularization Volunteer Service Activities in Jiading District. Cao Xiong, deputy head of the Shanghai People's Burlesque Troupe, said that he was very happy to become a volunteer, to be able to give full play to his professional advantages, through the form of burlesque that elderly friends like to hear, so that more elderly people can pay attention to dementia and do a good job in prevention. At the same time, he also called on more social professional forces to participate together and jointly promote the volunteer service of geriatric dementia science popularization.

Gong Lu, deputy director of the Publicity Department of the Jiading District Cpc Committee, director of the Cyberspace Office of the District Committee, and director of the District Spiritual Civilization Office, introduced that in recent years, Jiading District has designated the 10th of each month as the "Silver Hair Touch network day", carefully created courses, provided "tailor-made" service content for the elderly on the Internet, and distributed services to each village community through young volunteers to help the elderly improve their Internet application capabilities. At the same time, Jiading District will release all the resources and projects of the three-level position in the "Shanghai Jiading" App, and all the masses, including the elderly, can easily view and sign up to participate. "Participating in the new era civilization practice activities is as convenient as shopping online, and many elderly people are also very actively involved."
In the future, the Jiading District New Era Civilization Practice Center will extensively mobilize volunteer service forces, continuously improve the level of service for the elderly, and strive to provide assistance for "the elderly have support, the old have medicine, the old have teaching, the old have useful, and the old have fun".
