Digital Inclusion Project Coordinator
28 hours per week
£23,953 per annum, pro-rata. Actual annual salary £17,885.
Fixed-term until 30th November 2023 - Renewal subject to funding
Although the number of older people who are digitally connected continues to rise, there are still around 5 million people over the age of 55 in the UK who are not online. Age remains the biggest indicator of who's digitally excluded.
We live in an increasingly online world, with many key services moving to become 'digital first'. Since the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the role of the internet has become even more important, and for most people, this has changed the way they work, access services, maintain social contacts, and generally live their lives. While many older people have embraced digital technology, there are others who are less confident who are at risk of being left behind.
Age UK South Gloucestershire's new Digital Inclusion project looks to expand on our existing Technology Support provision and aims to deliver a programme to tackle digital exclusion by providing ongoing support for older people to increase and improve their digital skills and through the provision of loan technology to those older people without access. Being digitally included can help older people carry out the activities that matter most to them. It can help them stay connected with family and friends, find activities and support, access essential services, and remain socially connected.
As Digital Inclusion Project Coordinator, you would develop, coordinate and deliver our new digital inclusion support service for older people throughout South Gloucestershire. Duties will include establishing referral routes, publicising the service and matching the Digital Outreach Worker and Digital Champion volunteers to clients. The successful candidate will also coordinate the delivery of a Tablet Loan Scheme to increase access to technology for local older people.
If you have an advanced digital skill set, are patient, flexible, and a good communicator, and would relish the opportunity to positively impact the lives of older people, we would like to hear from you.
Age UK South Gloucestershire offers a generous benefits package, and the charity is committed to equalities, diversity and inclusion and therefore encourages applications from all sectors of the community.
If that person could be you, download an application pack from our website. Applications must be made using the form on our website, and completed application forms should be returned to us directly. Applications will not be accepted when submitted via agencies or other recruitment platforms.

Fixed-term until 30th June 2023 - Renewal subject to funding

Age UK South Gloucestershire working in partnership with Wesport is looking at reducing these barriers through walking. Walking has amazing health benefits, is accessible and is a great way to reintroduce physical activity into daily life.

We aim for these group walks to be inclusive, flexible enough to adapt to older people's lives and abilities, and act as a gateway to enjoying more regular physical activity. Group walks are appealing to people who have not taken part in exercise for some time, are nervous about walking alone or don't yet feel ready to join a Walking for Health programme, where the shortest walks are a mile long.
As the Walking Project Support Worker, you would assist the Project Coordination in successfully developing, promoting and delivering our new supported walking service for older people throughout South Gloucestershire. Duties will include leading weekly walks, acting as first aider, welcoming walkers and providing information on the walking route and potential risks and hazards. The successful candidate will also support the administration of the service and assist with the production and review of person-centred health & risk assessments for older people.
If you are organised, have an enthusiasm for and understanding of the importance of walking for health, and are a good communicator, who would relish the opportunity to positively impact the lives of older people, we would like to hear from you.
