As interest grows in intergenerational care, with early years settings and care homes forging links, a new project bringing together three age groups has launched.
Healthcare and early years students from Banbury and Bicester College and Reading College have been running a range of activities with local nurseries and care homes as part of a project called ‘The Gift’.
Launched in January 2018, the project is funded by education and training group Activate Learning, which runs the two colleges, through its Services to the Public faculty.
Residents and children from Green Pastures Christian Nursing Home and the Hobby Horse Children’s Centre in Banbury, and St Luke’s Care Home, Berkeley Gardens Day Nursery and Wigwam Day Nursery in Reading, were invited to take part in the project.
