Episode 17: An introduction to Intergenerational Practice with Liz Ludden & Sue Egersdorff

In this episode, Liz Ludden and Sue Egersdorff, founders of Ready Generations, a charity that supports intergenerational practice and care in the early years, join Alice Sharp to introduce the concept of intergenerational learning and practice. 

Passionate about this approach to learning, Liz and Sue discuss why they believe this approach is so important for child development in the early years. 

Liz and Sue explain that although still a relatively new approach in current practice, intergenerational practice is a way of learning that dates to many years ago, where we regularly had communities and generations of all ages interacting with each other. This type of collaboration creates a sense of community and belonging, with also improved wellbeing and development across all parties involved and throughout this episode, Sue and Liz share examples of this in practice.
