Developing intergenerational connections in Manchester Looking back Looking forward 0 Although we may not use the term, all of us enter into intergenerational relationships. As parents, grandparents, children, politicians even, our lives revolve around mutual support and care. The sharing of knowledge and expertise between the generations is the hallmark of healthy, sustainable communities, creating the neighbourhoods of choice and mutual respect that lie at the heart of Manchester's Community Strategy. Modern life can represent a strain on good relationships between generations. As families and as individuals we live more isolated lives. And sometimes young, old, and those in between, are set against each other competing for resources, public space and attention. This report sets out the case for promoting a multi-generational approach to developing and providing services, and designing future neighbourhoods. There is a significant body of evidence, locally, nationally and internationally, that intergenerational approaches can break down the stereotypes young and old can have of each other. There are impressive examples of improved educational attainment, reduced crime rates and a better sense of community spirit and wellbeing. I hope you enjoy reading this impressive report and, most importantly, take part in our plans for the future, which are set out on page nine.
