| Annotation | This guide is the result of four pilot projects which were part of the Third Age Learning Initiative supported by MLA North West and the Northern Rock Foundation. The initiative (which ran from October 2002 until February 2004) aimed to improve services for older people in Cumbria's museums. In order to achieve this, the pilot projects explored ways of working in collaboration with older people's groups and their representatives, by focusing on reminiscence work using museum objects and other items as prompts for discussion and the recollection of memories.
