The Share & Repair Project is a series of intergenerational events and workshops which share and showcase the skills and talents of older people from different communities in and across Bristol.
From Nordic walking to gardening tips, these workshops are one-off events for older people to share their knowledge and offer opportunities for intergenerational connection.
