The idea
As part of this project, intergenerational theatre company, Made by Mortals, will be delivering an interactive podcast, activity sheet and online show for 100 school classes (impacting on approx. 2000 families) in Tameside. They will also distribute 100 composters.
The concept of empowering older people to lead the way for younger people was trialled last year and that programme has achieved over 18,000 listeners and worked with 70 local older people and 5,000 school children and their families.
