Inter-generational care: Where

In September 2017, Nightingale House opened the doors to its on-site nursery, Apples and Honey Nightingale, the first co-located nursery in the UK. Children and elderly residents have access to a program filled with activities that include baking, gardening and art, as well as exercise. Residents can also access the nursery to spend time with the kids.


"The children work with and play with the residents every single day," said Ali Somers, co-founder of Apples and Honey Nightingale, who also heads evaluation and impact for this program.
The premise is intergenerational care, providing wisdom to the young and relationships -- and, in turn, longevity -- to the old.
