Our mission is to be a part of reducing loneliness and isolation by providing IT support to vulnerable and older people in order to equip them to feel more connected in our digital age. We are recruiting students who have a passion to share their technological understanding with those who need it most.

Last week we held our first Virtual Coffee session; it was a great success and we will continue to hold them every Friday at 10am. If you know of anyone that would benefit from interaction with our volunteers, please encourage them to join through our website.

The demand for support is so great that we’ve also set up a booking tool for 1-to-1 support - either for help with technology or for other support / conversations. Anyone can book at www.connecting-generations.org.uk/contact.

For anyone feeling lonely or going stir crazy, please feel welcome to join. The feedback we have received is how lifting it is to interact with new faces whilst we’re still locked down.

Stay safe,

The Connecting Generations team.

We understand that the current situation brings different challenges to different people. As we are not able to provide face-to-face services, we are looking into ways that we can help anyone that is lonely, isolated or has technical questions.

One of the first actions we've taken is to set up a weekly 'Virtual Coffee' session, to be held by a mix of our Trustees and volunteers. The sessions will take place at 10am every Friday and are open to everyone - old or young, whether you have a specific question about technology or just want to chat.

Please join the meeting at leisure through the link on our website: https://www.connecting-generations.org.uk/help.

Reach out to us at any time if you're feeling alone or need any support and we will endeavour to help. Just because we can't be physically present doesn't mean that we can't be together.

From the Trustees.
