Digital Unite
Digital Unite proves that you are never too old to learn. With a
grant of over £112,000 from the East London Learning and Skills
Council, we installed computer equipment including scanners and
webcams in fifteen supported housing schemes for older people in
East London.
Our residents were given training opportunities in how to use a
computer including searching the internet and using email with the
support of Hairnet UK who have many years experience of teaching
older people. More...
