Left behind: older people and digitalisation
An important part of the Beacon's community services is to provide internet access and facilities for people who don't have computers or computer skills.
Quite often it is older people who are left behind as technology changes the way utility companies, local authorities and other organisations do business.
Providing some case studies from our experiences at the Beacon, we commissioned a report in April 2014 to identify some of the issues and consider potential solutions for digital exclusion.
As the Beacon develops its community services into the future we will draw on what we have learnt and the research from sources such as this report to help guide what we offer.
Contact us for a copy of the report. If you would like to provide comments, feedback or ask questions, please send us an email
