Mumbai: “There is no retirement age for writers” penned Ruskin Bond in one of his recently published books. Sharing his passion for writing and spirit for life, the beloved children’s author has joined an initiative by Columbia Pacific Communities to encourage positive ageing and community living amongst senior citizens.
As a part of the Columbia Pacific Communities’ initiative “Positive Ageing with Ruskin Bond”, the celebrated author, through a video message, shared his belief in the concept of positive ageing and how people entering the golden years of life should feel invested in living up to the fullest.
Through the second video message, Ruskin Bond professes the importance of community living for senior citizens, and the need to be in a community, such asThe Virtuoso Club and Serviced Residences, which fosters positivity, active living, and a socially engaging lifestyle.
Excited about the association, Piali Dasgupta, Senior Vice President, Marketing, Columbia Pacific Communities, said“We are delighted to have Ruskin Bond on board to talk about positive ageing. Living an active and engaged life at the age of 86, Ruskin Bond is a true emblem of positive ageing, and is an inspiration to many across generations. We feel his message about positive ageing and our offerings at The Virtuoso Club and Serviced Residences will resonate deeply with seniors.”
