Community and digital for the over 50s in the London Borough of Newham
We’re pleased to be partnering with 3i, Community Links and Positive Transformation Group to support the over 50s in Newham through ‘Community Clicks’, a digital skills and inclusion course, to create a more inclusive and supported society.
Â
About Community Clicks
Community Clicks aims to support those 50 and over through digital and social inclusion, building skills and confidence and inform about local support services that will enable them to live fuller lives. Â
Individuals will learn key day-to-day digital skills including:
- Online shopping.
- Chatting with friends online.
- Make a doctor’s appointment.
- Make bank payments.
- And more!
They will have the use of computer facilities at Community Links, and at the end of the programme they will leave with a tablet to practise their skills.
There will also be a group activity day in central London.
During the programme the residents of Newham will also be introduced to local support services.
How to join
To join the programme, you can drop into the Community Links centre at: 105 Barking Road, London E16 4HQ
