Greater Manchester Combined Authority

We recently had the pleasure of designing a fantastic activity booklet for Greater Manchester Combined Authority – collaborating with them on their unique new initiative, to support thousands of older people across Greater Manchester. 

The Creative Care Kit contains a range of activities that can be completed at home and are being posted out to 16,000 people. 

There are more than 40 pages of activities from 25 organisations and groups including the People’s History Museum, Bury Met and Arc Stockport. Activities include music, writing, craft, horticulture and drawing.

The kits have been assembled by more than 100 volunteers from businesses, Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service, cultural organisations and members of the pubic, working together in shifts at the University of Salford.

Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) has worked together with the 10 Greater Manchester councils and organisations based in the boroughs, to identify who will receive the kit and how it will reach them.

It was fantastic to read some positive feedback in the article and the digital PDF is also available to download on the website: https://bit.ly/39VSNe8
