The Time Machine is looking for curious tour guides who return to the 60s with the elderly!
In the Time Machine you bring the elderly back to the scents, colors and atmospheres of their younger years. You grind coffee in the old-fashioned coffee grinder, admire the typewriter and the sixties mini skirts and dance to the music of The BeeGees. In the meantime, the elder tells his or her story: what did his life look like in the 60s? What made life meaningful?
These stories are moving and heart-warming to hear. But as a tour guide you go beyond the past; you also ask the elder what he would like to do now. What makes life worth living now?
You process the results of this interview in the Time Capsule. We use these outcomes to improve the (activity) program and the provision in care for the elderly.
As a preparation for the wonderful conversations and for completing the Time Capsule, you follow a workshop by Stichting De Tijdmachine.
