Every Monday and Friday, the little corner near the activity room at Lions Befrienders Active Ageing Centre (AAC) at Mei Ling 150 comes alive with colour, chatter, and the gentle rhythm of crochet hooks. Right in the middle is 79-year-old Mdm. Ng Soh Guat, with nimble fingers and a ready smile.
“做一点东西过日子，头脑才会动嘛！”

They came for the activities but stayed for the friendship. At Lions Befrienders Active Ageing Centre in Clementi, Mr. Yoganathan and Mr. Tan—two seniors from different worlds—found something rare and enduring: a bond rooted in humour, empathy, and mutual respect. Through simple acts like sharing meals, supporting newcomers, and checking in on rainy days, their story reflects the true spirit of community and connection across cultures.
Step into Lions Befrienders Active Ageing Centre at 420A Clementi, and you’ll be greeted not by silence, but by laughter. Seniors gather around tables—so many that some spill out into the lobby area. There’s rummikub being played in one corner, mahjong tiles clacking in another, and the unmistakable buzz of happy chatter filling the air. It feels less like a community centre and more like a family reunion in full swing.
