I have designed a number of Magic Me publications and four Annual Reports as well as Silently Revolting Currency:

The Our Generations programme, 2006-09, involved over a thousand people in intergenerational projects in diverse settings across Tower Hamlets – from the library to the park, youth clubs to people’s front rooms. The aim was to compare the benefits and practicalities of intergenerational projects with a range of people and partners. An outline of acitvities by Kathryn Gilfoy, Programme Manager, is followed by the findings of Dr Caoimhe McAvinchey, External Assessor.
