What was said about our projects:

 ‘Older people do have cool stories to share' 

‘The weekly Wednesday morning session took 10 years out of my age'

‘It's lovely being able to teach my skills to younger people' 

‘I really enjoyed it all. It was very interesting to work with you and all the 2 generations.
When we work together we can complete anything.' 

'It was so much fun! Thanks for your help with the project, we had a great time'
