Role Reversal Film Week
The cafe scene filmed in Tea Tree Cafe on the A6 in Belper. Everyone was trying not to laugh at the realistic acting from the Young People of the Drop Inn.
Practicing the steady walking and daily chit chat. Everyone fell into role and drew attention straight away.
O.A.P's threatening each other with the serious knife crime issues. This was completely safe with the old people modeling with knitting needles and a walking stick.
The Young people showing the Seniors how to act like them.

Training the Safer Neighbourhood Team
Myself and Gill Clarke (Derbyshire Intergenerational Strategy) have spend 2 afternoons doing a presentation to the police safer neighbourhood teams at County Hall Matlock. It was to promote Intergenerational work and show the positive outcomes within communities. I used the knife crime project and games nights as the main examples, especially the outcome that the older and younger people now speak to eachother in the street or on the estate - a good positive result.
Holbrook Village Fete
The Drop Inn held a stall at the event on Saturday 13th June in the sunshine.

STORIES OF YOUTH
STORIES OF YOUTH
A new project has started with the Alder Road group, mapping of places to go or hang around in the past and present, it is the start of a social history project. Large maps of Belper are being used to identify places, written stories are being produced to go with the maps. Really it is carrying on with the Clued Up project - who was the most street wise in their youth - just adding another angle to it. It will also be part of the film project “image of youth over the years”.
It is such good fun listening to what the elderly people got up to - it really entertains the young people, but it also shows the young people that who they see as old were not so different from themselves in their day.
We are planning a summer film project to be based at Chatsworth House during a week over summer – dates to be confirmed. This would be a wonderful backdrop for social history project material. The idea is to book transport and take picnic lunches along with elderly people and young people.
We need as many stories as possible so please forward anything to us especially if its relevant to Belper.
