🏆 We’re delighted to announce that we were awarded best ‘Intergenerational Activity Award’ at the 2024 Dementia Care Awards. 🏆

Thank you to United for All Ages who sponsored the category and beautiful award.

We’re very proud of what our hard-working and talented team have created in their projects this year. Our Session Facilitators and volunteers make each week very special for their groups and have supported our children and adults to blossom and develop magical connections over the year. This award is testament to their enthusiasm, warmth and skill they bring day in day out to our very special job.

This could be a chat at the tills, or on the bus, or getting in-touch with an old friend.

Our projects are doing an extra special activity to spark deeper connections this week.

We'd love to hear what connections you make this week and we guarantee your week will be all the brighter for it!

We feel extremely lucky to have some wonderful people who kindly bring their warmth, energy and talents to our sessions each week. Since it's National Volunteers week we wanted to take this opportunity to say a huge THANK YOU to each of you - you are amazing people and you truly do make our sessions extra special!
