A television company called Shiver Productions are developing a new television programme for a major broadcaster. They are looking for vibrant, fun and outgoing grandparents who want to spend more time with their adult grandchildren (who must be 18 plus).
With a lot of grandparents reportedly only seeing their grandchildren on average twice a year, it’s not surprising the two generations often know little about each other’s lives. In the programme, grandparents will spend one-on-one time with their multiple grandchildren in an attempt to get to know them better and see if they can offer any help.
Along the way they will learn about the pressures their grandchildren face, the lifestyle choices they make, their hopes for the future and what, if anything, is standing in their way of achieving them.
The programme will allow grandparents to share their knowledge, advice and practical help while learning more about the lives, hopes and aspirations of their grandchildren.
Local councils in Kent have been asked to see if there might be any grandparents (or grandchildren) who would like to get in touch with us.
On Saturday 25th November all are welcome at St Paul’s Church, Sandgate from 10am till Noon to be entertained by a return visit of our Organist John Hurd with Baritone Andrew Nunn in a short light programme of military songs and music under the heading “Kiss me Goodnight, Sergeant Major!”. Those who have heard this duo before will not wish to miss them.
