Do you remember the jobs people used to have before retirement? Let's bring back those memories by socializing and discussing the different kinds of professions people had during their working life. From butchers to bankers, farmers to housewives, everyone has a story to tell.
This activity is perfect for one-on-one conversations or small group discussions. It's a great opportunity to learn and share interesting stories about each other's past.
To get started, gather memories from the person or their friends and family. Use the 'Email Resources' button for a guide on what to ask. Take your time and enjoy some tea and biscuits while gathering the memories in a quiet spot over a few weeks.
Next, collect photos of their workplace, maps, and stock images to create a collage. Stick the workplace photo and map onto a large, thick white card and put the other images around it. Write down some of the memories, names of colleagues, things they liked or disliked, and any other details on the blank bits of the card.
Once the card is complete, place it in their room where they can easily see it. Later, you can bring everyone together with their memory collages and discuss them. This activity is a wonderful way to connect and learn more about the people in your life.
