We’re proud to have helped more than 3,000 people make an intergenerational connection.
“I used to stay indoors because of my
arthritis but then the children started
coming, filling the air with joy
and laughter. It prompted me to get a
support walker so I could come to the
sessions. Now, whenever I can, I go
outside with it.”
“The workshops have made me want to engage with other generations more and have shown me what’s possible.”
