Spring Into Life Festival – A Celebration of Age
When: Saturday 10th April 2010 -> Friday 23rd April 2010
Where: Cadbury Heath Community Centre
South Gloucestershire Council, Age Concern, the Senior Citizens Forum and Southern Brooks Community Partnership are staging the first South Gloucestershire Spring Into Life Festival – A Celebration of Age. This festival will open on Saturday 10th April with an event at Patchway Community Centre, and closes on 23rd April with an event at Cadbury Heath Community Centre.
We are planning a range of activities and events between these two dates. The aim of Spring Into Life is:
- To provide a range of fun, enjoyable, informative and stimulating events for older people many of which are ongoing or will continue beyond the Celebrating Age event
- To celebrate the positives of ageing and the range of activities older people can take part in South Glos.
- To raise the profile of older people in our community
- To give an opportunity for older people to increase skills and knowledge which will help maintain wellbeing and independence
- To reach a mix of older people from different communities
- To promote greater understanding between young and older people via involvement in inter-generational events
