Share what you know. Try something new.

For Older Adults

Loopd sessions bring older adults and young people together to create, learn and swap stories. Your experience, skills and perspective are part of what makes each session work.

What You Bring, and What You Get

Loopd programs are built so older adults contribute as much as they take part.

Your Experience Matters

Your stories, skills and knowledge are a central part of every session.

Make Something Together

Work with young people on artwork, music, writing or a shared community project.

Learn at Your Own Pace

Explore new technology or a new hobby with a patient partner and no pressure.

Real Conversations

Sessions are designed to get past small talk and into the things you care about.

Something to Look Forward To

Series and ongoing programs mean seeing familiar faces week after week.

New Relationships

Get to know young people and neighbours you might not otherwise meet.

Collaborative painting, crafts and visual art
Music, photography and creative writing
Smartphone, email and video-calling skills

Storytelling and recording your life story
