The golden years challenge

As part of our work with Age UK Gloucestershire, we want to encourage our members to build links across the inter-generational gap - so we are promoting the golden years challenge that can be used with your units. Please consider inviting/including the elderly in your events if possible. The golden years challenge was created by one of our leaders, Kate Fleming, as part of her Queen's Guide award.

As with all good challenges, there is a badge available too! It's available from our online shop.
