Getting Together Matters is a project that provides free, fun online events for older people across the UK. From creative writing to seated exercise and weekly quizzes, the aim is to bring older people from across the UK together online, to have fun and take part in a range of free events and activities. We started during the pandemic, and are still going strong!
The aim of Getting Together Matters is really what it says on the tin – it’s getting people together, increasing engagement and decreasing isolation. The sessions are run by volunteers, who use their experience, skills and energy to run them for anyone who wants to join.

Creative writing course, this can be delved into in different ways; if you
are a housing scheme (or group) then you can deliver this as a set of
workshops (thoughtfully put together by our brilliant volunteers) or
people can join individually. There is an option of
joining online or calling in a fortnightly group by phone to do
readthroughs with GTM. Please click on POSTER for more details
