New project ready to go (From Penarth Times)

New project ready to go

10:37am Thursday 25th October 2012 in Letters

 ‘EVERYONE’S Future’ is a new partnership between Vibe Experience and Age Concern Cardiff and The Vale.

The project is funded by the Big Lottery until 2014, with two new age equality workers aiming to tackle stereotyping and challenge discrimination of younger and older people.

We are in the process of setting up an Everyone’s Future working group, which would be made up of project staff, older people, young people and professionals.

This group can help shape the project, assist at events, spread the aim of the project and may form the catalyst for further projects down the line. The meetings will be informal and everyone will have the chance to give their opinions and ideas.

This would be a great opportunity for people who would be interested in working in events, media and film, community and care work along with providing the skills of working with younger and older people.

The first meeting will be on November 29, at Area 41, Holton Road, Barry at 4pm.
