Mila's lecture, entitled "Storing memories", highlighted the importance of eliciting memories to keep the mind active at any age.

During her talk, she showed old photos of Spain, which evoked memories and emotions among the residents.

FCC volunteers presented Mila with the customary speaker gift, a painting by Down's Syndrome children in Madrid.
