The deputy delegate of the Government in A Coruña, María Rivas, participates, together with the mayor of Vimianzo, Mónica Rodríguez, in the new edition of the ‘Xantar dos nosos maior’.
Rivas highlighted the voluntary and intergenerational work of the holiday; and congratulated the neighborhood and the associative fabric that, in collaboration, make it possible for “the elderly people of Vimianzo to have this holiday and enjoy this day, their day”. In addition, he recalled that our duty, as a society, is to think “of past generations, so that they do not fall into oblivion and to pay homage to everything they did for all of us.”
The deputy delegate also stressed the government’s debt to the elderly, for their contribution to consolidating a democracy that today “allows us to enjoy many of the rights we have.”
