CREATIVE kids at an East Renfrewshire looked to the future as they took part in a fun challenge.
A workshop took place at Braidbar Primary, in Giffnock, where pupils were asked to design a ‘caring home for the future.’
The session, led by a team from Tomorrow’s Older People East Renfrewshire, gave the children a chance to talk about social isolation and challenge their perceptions of older age.
Youngsters then built a model of the type of care setting they would want an older person or a future self to live in.
Teacher Lisa Macintyre said: “This workshop encouraged the learners to think empathetically about the needs of those who require care.”
