Old People’s Home for Teenagers on ABC – The popular and heart-warming series, Old People’s Home for Teenagers returns, bringing together a new set of teens and seniors for an inspirational and powerful intergenerational experiment.
Old People’s Home for Teenagers Season 1 brought an unlikely duo together; seniors and teenagers, resulting in a compelling and inspiring global first experiment.
The results were undeniable. Significant benefits from the intergenerational program transformed their lives not only for the better but re-invigorating their futures.
Narrated by Annabel Crabb, this season a group of seniors aged from 71-94 years old who live in a retirement village and a group of local teenagers, aged between 14 and 16 years old, join the experiment looking to build much needed connections and find long lasting bonds.
Although the seniors live in close proximity, they are suffering from loneliness, isolation and depression.
The teenagers are also navigating a difficult time of life, as they struggle to develop their independence and self-worth.
Together they will participate in a series of activities to learn more about each other, challenge the way they think, and break down agest beliefs in both groups. In the process they will forge lifelong connections and build a closer community at the village.
