Kissing it BetterOur imaginative healthcare projects make an immediate and lasting difference to the lives of older people. Our teaching and training programmes make our expertise available to everyone.
We started KiB in 2009 as a way of sharing hundreds of simple but powerful ideas that make a world of difference to older, vulnerable people in hospitals, care homes and the community.

Our intergenerational projects would not be possible without the generosity and support of our brilliant funders. This summer, we’ve made some new funding friends, and renewed our partnership with some old and very valued ones.

This June, KiB gave would-be medics the chance to take part in a unique work-experience day. Eight students spent a day at Warwick hospital, meeting patients, sharing stories, and learning from healthcare professionals.

Primary school children across the country are joining our drive to help older people feel happier and more connected to their community. Thousands of 4-11 year olds have now taken part in our ‘When Great Granny Came to Stay’ workshops, learning how to share stories and bring joy into the lives of people who grew up in very different times.
We offer a range of teaching and training courses, developed in partnership with Skills for Health.
KiB is committed to safeguarding and protecting every person we work with – young and old – and we expect all staff, associates, trustees and volunteers to share this commitment.
KiB is a dynamic organisation and we’d like to work with you. There are many ways to get involved, from becoming a volunteer, to signing up for one of our courses. Everyone we inspire can make a difference – together, we can help make life better for older people everywhere.
