Students placed in a care home environment bring an infectious enthusiasm for learning that is palpable within the care home. The intergenerational exchange fosters a sense of community, with the residents benefiting from the youthful energy and the students gain valuable insights from the residents’ life experiences. This dynamic creates a unique learning atmosphere where curiosity becomes a driving force for both students and residents. The students were given resources for meaningful activities from My Home Life Charity and asked to choose a topic to create a meaningful activity that promotes communication and relationships with the residents. The students had chosen two activities they would like to explore further. These activities not only promote social interaction but also contribute to overall well-being of the residents, fostering a sense of community within the care home. The collaboration has facilitated a valuable exchange of knowledge between each other, through shared responsibilities and both have gained some insight into each other’s professional domains and programme of study. This cross disciplinary learning is likely to enhance their future teamwork and communication skills.
