#OneGoodTurn was an intergenerational social action project that ran across Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire until 2024. This project is no longer active.
Linking up older people living in care homes with younger people between the ages of 5 and 16, #OneGoodTurn worked with schools, youth groups, families, care homes and individuals. A key focus of the work was to promote social action across the generations, empowering both younger and older people to have a positive impact on their environment and the community.
Via a program of activities, trips and events, participants were supported to identify the social issues that they care most about. We then worked together to raise awareness around this issue through one-off workshops and longer lasting campaigns.
