GWT National Intergenerational Awards

Generations Working Together (GWT) is pleased to announce the launch of the 2019 National Awards for Recognition in Intergenerational Work.

The awards recognise, showcase and celebrate achievement and outstanding practice in intergenerational work in Scotland. GWT believes that intergenerational practice brings people together in purposeful, mutually beneficial activities, which promote greater understanding and respect between generations, and contribute to building more cohesive communities.

These awards will inspire individuals and organisations from the third sector, public and private agencies to develop their intergenerational work and embed it within their practice and policy.
