Through fun and interactive activities, we encouraged teachers to facilitate lessons where primary school children and older people, including care home residents, came together to explore topics like biodiversity and climate change, and discover how everyone can contribute to making a positive difference.
Addressing environmental challenges is more important than ever. Generations of Change brought together the experience of older generations and the creativity of younger ones, while also building stronger connections and supporting the wellbeing of everyone involved.
From nature walks and learning about the importance of climate change to community litter picks, take a look at how our homes got involved.
