Are we EVER too old?

04:49 | Posted by | | Edit Post
It is sometimes suggested that older people might have less use for ICT than their younger counterparts?  A recent 'taster session' by the team in Flint certainly turns this thinking on its head. We will simply post the link here to a brief YouTube clip of Evelyn, aged 100 years, being given the opportunity to speak to her niece in France via Skype, and leave people to make their own minds up.

About

Get Online Wrexham Flintshire is a cross-county collaboration between both local authorities and CVCs to deliver Digital Inclusion in the region.
It is part of an overall Digital Inclusion Strategy from Welsh Government that funds Communities 2.0, an all-Wales project.

There are over 70,000 people classed as being digitally excluded in that they either have no access to or ability to use the internet or computers in general and this puts them at a great disadvantage in a digital age.
The team works across both counties to deliver training and engagement sessions to promote the use of online facilities such as information websites and shopping.
