First Intergenerational Day Centre for Scotland

Newbyres Nursery is looking for a charity or organisation who could collaborate with them to offer social day care for the elderly in their building alongside the Early Learning and Childcare that they provide for their 3-5 year olds.

This would be the first Intergenerational Day Centre in Scotland.

The charity/organisation would provide care for their elderly clients and Newbyres would be responsible for the children. There would be opportunities for intergenerational activities and shared learning, but also separate spaces for the elderly and the children so there would be a nice relaxed atmosphere.

For further details please contact Mel Scrimgeour, Manager.
