Our 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.

Imagine what it feels like to be confined to one room, with no sense of what’s going on outside.

Helping others boosts happiness by keeping you connected, and making you realise how great it feels to make someone else smile.
We offer a range of teaching and training courses, all accredited by SfJ Awards. Our level 1-3 qualifications are suitable for students, healthcare staff and companies, as well as for individuals and groups. We also offer an accredited learning programme (ALP), and a one-day ‘awareness’ course.
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.
