Het Anker

In the heart of the Brussels Begijnhof district is Het Anker, an accessible centre dedicated to increasing social inclusion, especially for the elderly. The focus is on working toward a "caring neighbourhood," where the well-being of residents is the main focus. Het Anker offers social activities, daily fresh meals and an info point so people can continue to live in their familiar surroundings for as long as possible.
