	“The health and social benefits that Age Exchange has achieved over the years are quite remarkable. Its creative activities with young people and adults of all ages in care settings and in the community are unparalleled. I have been inspired over the years and I know I will be in the future.” Baroness Greengross 2008
	Age Exchange is recognised as the leading UK charity working in the field of reminiscence. In 2008 Age Exchange celebrated its 25th anniversary.

"Care" Exhibition Age Exchange presents ‘Care’- a series of works by artists Tanya Kaprielian and Tim Sutton that explore the issue of care across the generations. For 6 months working alongside carers across London the artists conducted projects and interviews with older people, carers and healthcare professionals. These works reflect the artists’ personal experience of the project, and the emotive subject of what it is to be a carer or to be cared for. 10 October - 23 December 2009 Age Exchange Reminiscence Centre Monday - Friday 10 am - 5pm Saturday 10 am - 4 pm further tour dates & venues > [pdf file 93k] Age Exchange Publications Find out about our Publications > Find out about our Forthcoming Friends Events >	"To Care For" Age Exchange's new production based on Londoners' memories of family, community, and institutionalised care previewed at Greenwich Theatre on the 31st of July and 1st August.
