AAA: Access All Ages

Intergenerational England and Intergenerational Music Making invites you to join AAA: Access All Ages, a unique event celebrating the power of intergenerational connections. Together, we’ll showcase the incredible work happening across sectors to bridge generational divides, foster meaningful relationships, and create a more inclusive society.
This celebratory event will take place at Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, bringing together hundreds of people from across the sectors and communities across England. On the day, we will officially launch IE’s coalition of partners, and demonstrate how impactful leveraging the power of music is at connecting people across 5 generations.
A central highlight of the event will be a collective Moment of Song, written collaboratively by individuals of all ages across the country.

"With an ageing population and increased isolation amongst many age groups, I believe it is important to promote intergenerational thinking and practice wherever we can. By encouraging cooperation between government at all levels and local civil society, we can address local issues with a fresh perspective that considers the needs and strengths of all age groups.
Viewing challenges through an intergenerational lens allows us to build more inclusive, resilient communities where everyone, regardless of age, can thrive. I hope that MPs and my fellow peers from across the political and ideological spectrum will find the time to get involved in intergenerational projects, and to build a more inclusive society."
