We’re pleased to share that our next in‑person network meeting will take place on Thursday 21st May 2026, from 1.30–3.30pm, at the Fife Brain Health & Dementia Resource Centre, Kirkcaldy. Another date for your diary is our one‑day Intergenerational Training Course, delivered by Corrina Bruce on Monday 23rd February 2026 in Dunfermline.
Congratulations to Fife Sports & Leisure Trust, winners of GWT’s Excellence Award – Intergenerational Workplaces. The award was presented at our Inverness Conference on 30th September 2025. You can learn more about their work, along with the achievements of our other award winners and highly commended projects, here.
GWT is currently recruiting Volunteer Intergenerational Community Connectors across Scotland, and we are specifically looking for a volunteer to help support and grow the Fife network. If you’re interested in getting more involved in intergenerational practice and helping strengthen intergenerational connections in your local area, this could be a great opportunity for you.
