We can’t believe it’s already been a week since the Age-Friendly Awards! Read on to find out all about our award winners.

Hannah Mason, CEO, reflects on the InCommon team hosting the annual Age Friendly Awards in partnership with Clarion Futures and the #iWill Fund.

Our intergenerational social action programme continues to evolve and we’re delighted to share this update from our Programme Manager, Michaela, including news of two new partnerships.

The new year is off to an exciting start at InCommon, with an action packed few months of workshops.

We’re delighted to share the launch of three new intergenerational projects as part of our Empower programme.

In this guest blog our Programme Officer Rosie reflects on a special session she held with younger neighbours in East London to learn more about dementia.

As the year draws to a close, we’re taking a moment to look back at some of our favourite workshops from the past few months.

It was wonderful connecting with the youth organisations across the country involved in this year’s Intergenerational Social Action Programme, funded by Clarion Futures, Sovereign Network Group, Places for People and #iwill.  

The evenings might be longer, but for InCommon it’s one of our favourite times of the year as we begin a new term of intergenerational workshops.

We’re delighted to have teamed up with our friends at the Brixton-based Advocacy Academy to run a free ten session course on how to create change in the local community.

When I applied to the Civic Leadership Academy at King's, I had little knowledge of the charity sector and was simply seeking a new experience. After several interviews, I was thrilled to join InCommon.

With the school year coming to a close, older and younger people across London have celebrated a year of amazing intergenerational friendships with a summer party.

On Wednesday 19th June, we came together to celebrate groups and individuals that are part of innovative and inspiring age-friendly projects.

The theme of this year’s Mental Health Awareness Week is movement. What better way to get the generations moving than with them some age- friendly yoga?

We’re delighted to introduce our new programme Empower, which supports communities across the UK in delivering safe, meaningful and impactful intergenerational activities.

With the winter months behind us, it’s the perfect opportunity to reflect on what we’ve been up to so far this year.

After a successful recruitment round, we are delighted to announce that we have three new trustees and an advisor joining our Board. 

What better way to mark the festive season than looking back on a fantastic few months?

It’s been a big few months for us at InCommon - we’ve been growing the team, recruiting new trustees, and now we’re excited to announce that we’re hiring a new CEO.

It was party season at InCommon last month with children and older people across London getting together for one last celebration before the end of term.
