Our vision at Age Exchange is a world where older people’s past lives are re-discovered, valued and celebrated to help people be their true selves and live life to the full. We exist to transform lives through creative reminiscence by helping older people, including those with dementia, to build self-esteem, reducing isolation and improve wellbeing.

Age Exchange was founded in 1983 in the context of an emerging awareness of the value of reminiscence work, especially in care settings for older people. For more than 30 years we have developed new models of work offering participants a wide range of reminiscence-based creative activities and arts products.
