Considering the life style of now a days where the people are with increased stress level and in the habit of unhealthy food and are not into regular exercise suffering with various types of metabolic disorders. The diseases like swine flu, etc are more with the low immunity individuals.
6. Pakal veedu
What Pakalveedu Offers is a day long fellowship to the senior citizens of Thrissur. The day is well spent with activities aimed at spiritual, social, physical and intellectual nourishment of the old people. So there are memory games, physiotherapy, songs, meditation, house fellowships, counseling to the families, lectures, messages, medical check-ups, picnics etc. They are picked up in the morning and taken back home in the evening to spend their nights in their own homes. What Pakalveedu could witness in the last few years is old people coming out of their lonliness and depression and thus less hospitalization and enhanced quality of life.
Getting old, for some, means becoming lonely. A day long fellowship can go a long way to give a silver lining to the somber tint to the twilight of their lives.
We provide:-
Total Support

We believe that “Old Age is like Second Childhood”, hence we take total care to ensure comfortable stay for elderly people coupled with care, compassion and love.
Awareness
The activities of the Trust have brought in new kind of awareness among local population on twin aspects of caring the Elderly and also contributing to the feeling of oneness among all. Today, even not-so-well-to-do people also contribute their own way to the maintenance of Old Age Home by donating rice, vegetables etc. during their harvests and also feed the elderly on festive occasions.
7. Homely Villa
Unsafe and inadequate housing is a major problem faced by tribal people. Houses with thatched roofing, weak foundations and flooring with mud and cow dung are typical conditions of the houses, and they require frequent repairs. Open defecation is vastly prevalent due to lack of awareness on sanitation and hygiene and absence of sanitation facilities. Low level of education and high school dropout rates are very common among Tribal children.
