Memory Matters Social Network

The Adult Community and Family Learning Service is part of a 2-year trans-European project, with Finland, Poland and Ireland, called Memory Matters. The project focuses on working with older people, using reminiscence work and involving learners in collecting stories and items from their past. These will be collected and shared across the partner countries in book and electronic form, creating an invaluable opportunity for each participating country to gain an insight into the traditions, history and cultures of the other groups.
