Further info
Our Network meetings are informal and welcoming sessions which offer an opportunity to connect with others passionate about intergenerational work, share learning and experiences, and hear about developments across the local area. It’s an ideal space to build partnerships, gain practical insights, and spark new ideas to strengthen intergenerational practice in your community. Come along if you are planning, or have planned, an intergenerational project, or simply would like to know more about how to get involved.
GWT is currently recruiting Volunteer Intergenerational Community Connectors across Scotland. 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.
