Digital skills, and the ability to use technology is now vital for people to participate in society.
Digital Seniors is a registered charity that provides essential support to a rapidly growing population of seniors who need help navigating digital tools and technology.
We deliver free, high-quality, one-to-one coaching for seniors through our local hubs in four communities across the North Island.
These hubs are weekly social learning spaces for seniors that support them build skills in a positive, fun and social environment.
Our hubs are far more than learning spaces though, they are lifelines. They offer seniors meaningful opportunities to connect with others, build confidence, and remain active, engaged members of their commu
Most services, communications, and entertainment are now online. However, many seniors have difficulty accessing these and, as a result, are becoming more socially excluded.
At a time when social isolation is a growing concern, our hubs serve as a critical intervention point, linking seniors not only to digital skills but also to wider health and mental-wellbeing supports.
The hubs are a part of our wider ecosystem model sees us collaborate with other senior support services in the community.
We are here to help our seniors to be digitally included and enjoy the benefit of technology!
