Senior Support – We offer help for seniors in our community through the free Be Connected program to gain the confidence and skills needed to use new technology so they can participate in and share in the benefits of the modern digital world.
- We offer seniors help though our Be Connected online digital training with a tutor to assist you. It’s an area where seniors can receive free access to computers and training on how to use a computer and the internet.
- Guidance and on-going support is provided in a friendly face-to-face environment by volunteer tutors on topics such as how to email, use the internet, iPads and tablets, social media applications such as Facebook, Zoom, Facetime, Skype and others and how to stay safe online.
- Seniors can also undertake the training away from the kiosk such as on their computers at home, enabling them to learn at their own pace.
- Training courses have been designed with the unique learning needs of seniors in mind and are easy to use – even for those who have never used a computer before.
The Community Centre has computers available for seniors to learn free of charge with assistance from staff members or a volunteer if required. You can start your journey right now by asking any questions via the Contact Form.
