Christmas Solitude Averted for Senior Citizens in Neuss: Community Initiative Provides Companionship
The city of Neuss is gearing up for its annual Christmas Eve celebration, set to take place at the Hotel Crowne Plaza. However, details about the event and its online alternative are not readily available online at this time.
For those wishing to attend the in-person celebration, registration is mandatory and can be done at one of the eleven guide points located in various Neuss districts. Each guide point has its own contact person, such as Nicole Hütz at the Furth guide point, who can be reached at Tel. 0163/56 78 025. All guests must present their tickets upon entry to the event.
Public transportation, including buses and trains, will still be operational in the afternoon on the day of the celebration. For those preferring an online alternative, the "Paths out of loneliness" Zoom room will host an online Christmas celebration on Monday, December 25th at 3 pm. The access data for this Zoom room can be obtained by request via the association "Paths out of loneliness".
The Christmas Eve celebration promises a contemplative program, featuring devotion, Christmas music, a festive dinner prepared by Hotel Crowne Plaza in Neuss, coffee, and Christmas pastries. Christmas surprises are also promised during the event. Admission to both the in-person and online celebrations is free. Each guest will receive a named ticket upon registration.
For more precise details about the event, such as the registration process, location, program, and contact information for additional tickets, it is recommended to check the official Neuss city website, local event organizers, or community centers closer to the Christmas season. Official event pages typically include such information.
Additionally, the "Silvernet Feiertagstelefon" will be available from December 24th to New Year's Eve at 10 pm, providing a free, confidential, and anonymous service for people over 60 who feel lonely. This service is nationwide.
For those in need of transportation to the in-person celebration, a taxi-bus service can be booked in advance. Common tickets (such as monthly or single tickets) can be used. However, there is no mention of transportation services for the online Christmas celebration via Zoom.
The Diakonie Rhein-Kreis Neuss provides information and remaining tickets for the in-person Christmas Eve celebration at the guide point Furth. The online Christmas celebration via Zoom will include short stories, riddles, music, games, and memory training.
