We've just finished the first two days of the Reporting and Promoting Project - part of the Generations Together Programme in London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. The first day was a workshop, introducing a group of younger (under 25) and older (over 50) people to social media. The second day was a social media surgery, with people from day one sharing their knowledge, lots of new people interested in learning, and some expert "surgeons" who helped everyone.

There's lots of posts about the early work of the Reporting and Promoting Project on the Generations Together blog.

This post is from the Social Media Surgery:
