One elderly participant from the outing, 67-year-old Madam Ramlah said: “The bus trip on the trolley bus was very interesting. I liked the sing-a-long (session)… (and) the volunteers were very friendly.”
The outing concluded with a sumptuous buffet and fun-filled games and activities at the NTUC Centre, facilitated by Singapore Insurance Employees’ Union’s women’s chapter.
