“Pengyou”  (which means “friends” in Chinese) is an intergenerational community project  which brings Chinese young people and elders together for friendship and for mutual learning in a supportive programme of events and activities.

Both elders and youngsters have described feelings of loneliness and cultural isolation living in Brighton and Hove which was the inspiration for our project.

Over the course of summer 2015 we are organising trips and activities to help bring people together in order to  combat isolation and to promote friendship between the generations .
