Digital Inclusion for Older People Meet-up
Tuesday 4th July, 2-3pm
This is an open forum to bring together organisations that support older people to gain digital skills and access the digital world safely and confidently. The meeting will be co-chaired by representatives from three ambassador hubs – Vick Virdee from ACDA Training, Ann Avison from Lincs Digital and Tanya Cook from A1 Community Works.
At our July meet-up, we’ll be talking about the power of peer support, sharing success stories and different models of peer support between older learners.
There will be some short presentations before moving into breakout sessions where you can talk to other organisations that support older people from around the UK.
