Digital exclusion has always been an issue for older people, particularly for those living in the boroughs we serve which are the 3 poorest areas to live in the UK for the over 65s. Being able to get the cheapest utility deals, bid for more suitable social housing or simply find out about what’s going on in their area is something many of us take for granted. The COVID-19 health crisis has further highlighted the digital divide between those who have the means to access the resources and opportunities available on the internet and those who do not.

We are excited to be re-focusing on a broad digital programme, which aims to genuinely connect older people to each other, to information and to activities.  This is one role within an expanding team which will be delivering and testing a range of existing and new initiatives and embedding the learning across our services.
