Namhae-gun's First Step in 'Senior Citizens' Hairdressing and Bathing Fee Support Project'

NH Nonghyup Bank Namhae-gun Branch Signs Business Agreement

Namhae-gun, Gyeongnam, an age-friendly city, plans to provide voucher cards worth approximately 60,000 KRW annually to residents aged 75 and older who have their resident registration in the area. These vouchers can be used at local beauty salons and bathhouses (affiliated stores).

On the 30th of last month, Namhae-gun signed a business agreement with the NH Nonghyup Bank Namhae-gun branch to take the first step in the "Senior Beauty and Bathing Expense Support Project."

Namhae-gun signed an agreement to support senior citizens' hairdressing and bathing expenses.

This project aims to contribute to the health and welfare of local seniors. From the 6th of this month, affiliated stores will be recruited (ongoing recruitment), with the full-scale project set to launch next year.

Namhae-gun will establish a card system through the voucher card agreement with the NH Nonghyup Bank Namhae-gun branch. The issued voucher cards will be automatically recharged with quarterly usage amounts, and affiliated stores will use a settlement system similar to credit cards, significantly reducing inconvenience for both seniors and businesses.

County Governor Jang Chung-nam stated, "We expect both seniors and affiliated stores to conveniently use the voucher cards supporting beauty and bathing expenses. As an age-friendly city, Namhae-gun will continue to discover and implement various welfare policies to make Namhae-gun a better place for seniors to live."
