Tayside (Angus, Dundee, Perth & Kinross)

Welcome to the Tayside Network

Our next in‑person network meeting will take place at the Montrose Playhouse on Thursday 12 November 2026 between 2:00pm and 4:00pm. To reserve your space, please register here

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. If you are currently supporting an intergenerational project or planning one, we’d love to hear from you, or come along to simply learn more.

One-day Intergenerational Training Course
GWT is looking to deliver our one-day Intergenerational Training Course in person in Perth sometime in the autumn. A date is still to be finalised, but if you or your organisation would be interested in attending our training, please get in touch with Joshua.

May 2026 Meeting
Our recent Tayside network met on Thursday 28th May 2026 in Perth. It was great to hear about the intergenerational projects happening across the area, creating meaningful connections between younger and older generations.⁠ Special thanks to Perth Citizens Advice Bureau for hosting us. For more information on the meeting, see the notes below.

Perth Roadshow
Thank you to everyone who attended our Intergenerational Learning Roadshow in Perth back in November 2025 and to David MacLuskey, Strategic Lead & Chief Education Officer, Perth & Kinross Council for taking time out to come along and give his support to redeveloping intergenerational opportunities within education. We had an amazing afternoon with lots of discussion and great networking, the feedback shows great promise for future intergenerational activity across Perth & Kinross.

We are recruiting volunteer intergenerational community connectors to help support GWT with the Tayside network. If you would like to get more involved in intergenerational working, learn more about the practice and help grow intergenerational relationships in your local area this is the role for you.
