Crafting Connections, which was launched in March to parents, is now being widened out to all early years settings, starting with a trial of five childcare providers. Those selected for the trial will be expected to share feedback of the initiative in return for a year of Crafting Connections free of charge.
Settings that are keen to get involved in the trial should get in touch with The Together Project, the intergenerational charity behind the initiative, as soon as possible - details below.
Eleven countries across the world are taking part in Global Intergenerational Week, organised by Generations Working Together. Countries that are taking part include the UK, Ireland, Australia, America, Canada, Spain and Sweden. In England, nurseries including Apple and Honeys Nightingale in London and St Philips Marsh Nursery school in Bristol are holding events.
