Kingston's Eating with Friends program involves students from Kingston High School preparing and serving meals to older people in the community.
The students get to enjoy the intergenerational contact whilst contributing to the design and creation of a nutritionally based menu while the older participants, who also enjoy the intergenerational contact, enjoy a beautiful meal in a comfortable and accessible venue St Clements Church 100 Beach Road, Kingston.
