Intergenerational Inclusion in the Sport and Physical Activity Sector

Intergenerational Inclusion in the Sport and Physical Activity Sector
April 23, 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

**PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS WEBINAR WILL HAVE A SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOCUS BUT EVERYONE IS WELCOME **
Webinar overview
At the 2022 Games in Birmingham we saw George Miller aged 75 years win a gold medal for Scotland in lawn bowls and Anahat Singh, a 14-year-old badminton player, compete for India. It’s not just on the international stage where we see such a diversity of age, but also in classes, clubs, community centres, the countryside, and parks all around the country.
The passion for being active transcends age and generational boundaries. Nowadays workforces are more likely than ever to be intergenerational: made up of five generations working together. This is even more apparent in sport and Physical Activity where staff, volunteers, officials, and coaches can be from such a broad spectrum of age groups.
In this webinar we will support you to understand the different dynamics of intergenerational environments and how to create inclusive spaces where everyone can thrive.
This webinar is hosted by Zoiey Smale, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant at Inclusive Employers.
