Introducing Bridging the Gap! Our brand-new intergenerational YouTube channel created by young people in schools and older people living in care.
This channel is designed to be a space of sharing and connecting with each other. Please enjoy these videos, share the channel with others, and learn about the daily life of people from different generations.
Watch the channel here.
Young people tell us about their learning and what it is like to attend school in the modern day, while older people living in care share their stories and day-to-day life. Staff also tell us of their experiences working in school and residential settings.
If you work in an educational or care setting and are interested in submitting your own film to be uploaded to this channel, please email bridgethegap@aliveactivities.org
Through our current intergenerational project, STANd (Strength Together Age Network development), we collaborated with Bristol schools and care homes, supporting people of all ages to tell their stories and daily lives.
