The generations working together make for a better world. Enabling different generations to connect more, intergenerational approaches mitigate our age-siloed world, reduce ageism & foster resilient, cohesive communities.
Younger & older people cite benefits in their personal lives, workplaces & communities helping their physical & mental wellbeing - meaningful intergenerational relationships & lasting friendships, improved confidence & self-esteem, better communication skills, increased mutual trust, respect & empathy, reduced loneliness & social isolation, & more.
Generations Working Together (GWT, recognised internationally as a centre of excellence in intergenerational practice, started in 2007, becoming a registered charity in 2015.
Let’s live in a Scotland where different generations are more connected, with everyone having opportunities to build relationships helping to create a fairer society. We develop, expand & improve intergenerational practice – projects, activities & events where different generations, who might not otherwise meet, do positive, creative things together. Its beauty is its universal applicability, impact & cost-effectiveness.
