  • develop confidence in using a laptop, smart phone or tablet

  • maintaining independence (e.g.: using an online map for errands and appointments)
  • build up resilience though learning something new

All questions and levels of experience welcome. We can also help you determine which portable device or apps would be best suited for your specific needs.

Future group work sessions include:

  • how to identify scams
