Our Age Friendly work focuses on making sure people of all ages feel respected and included within the communities they belong to. It is important for younger and older generations to respect each other. Doing intergenerational activities together is a fantastic way to achieve this.
Intergenerational activities are social engagements and interactions, bringing together younger and older generations for a common purpose. These activities help us appreciate and value what each age group brings to the community. Nowadays, we're living longer, and our society is busier, often making it harder for different generations to connect.
By taking part in these activities, we can break down the idea that being a certain age is a problem. It helps us build real relationships, make friends, and have meaningful conversations with people of all ages.
