Age UK’s Silver Sunday is a day dedicated to older people which takes place every year in October. Fun and free activities are held across the UK where older people can make new friends, visit new places, try new activities, and connect with other generations in their local communities. This year’s Silver Sunday will be taking place on Sunday 6th October, and City Lit will join in the activities by offering a diverse selection of workshops.







This taster session is aimed specifically to older people but everyone is welcome to join in, as connecting generations forms an important part of this day.
