PENG ANN, CHIEF TREASURE SEEKER
Peng Ann is a retiree who is keen to encourage people from all walks of life, particularly seniors, to showcase items or objects of significance that they have collected over time, so that the people of future generations can benefit from them. Since a young boy, he has collected a wide range of memorabilia from library cards to chopsticks, and will be featuring them on Time Traveller over time. These items can create much interest amongst children and nostalgia amongst adults. Seeing them easily online brings back memories and stories can be told, bringing about family bonding. Time Traveller will help many to record their life journeys so that they will be shared and enjoyed by others as well.
ELEANOR, MENTOR
Eleanor is the founder of Ageless Online, a free e-magazine for seniors, a blog called Ageless Voice and a youth initiative called FACEUP. She believes in giving seniors the resources they need to lead active and healthy lives. Having been involved in the ageing sector since running a seniors’ magazine in 2000, Time Traveller, which was started in 2014, is her fourth initiative and aims to showcase objects from the past that mean a lot to seniors and which are particularly new to the youths of today. Hopefully this will ignite conversations for the youths and the seniors, and it is a chance for the seniors to do some reminiscing and for the youths to not forget the past. A quote from a movie: "The past – when it is gone, nobody takes the time to look back", but at Time Traveller we want to look back!
