Senior
DVD
This
DVD allows groups of senior citizens to come together to discuss
personal safety issues which many of them face today.
Eighteen
And Under formed partnerships with Tayside Police and Fire
and Rescue Services to make the DVD which covers topics such
as: 
- bogus callers
- domestic
violence
- bad carers
- safety in
the home
- misjudging
youths
- dealing
with fires.
It
features a number of Senior Citizens, who have taken part
in the Senior VIP programme, playing the roles.
Whilst the underlying messages are serious, it portrays them
with humour allowing everyone to have fun, whilst raising
their awareness of personal safety. Each scenario allows for
a pause for discussion of the topic raised.
A
40 page instruction book accompanies the DVD which is packed
with tips on using the resource to best effect.
Early
evaluations of the DVD have proved extremely positive and
it is now being used with elderly groups all over the UK.
