As a Silver City Surfers Volunteer Tutor you will support learners with use of their smartphone, tablet or laptop. Enabling older people to embrace technology and gain the confidence to keep learning, improving not just their digital skills but to use the internet to improve their well-being and feel less socially isolated.
Silver City Surfers are supporting members of the community, mostly over 50's who are struggling with the world of IT and accessing the internet. With five drop in sessions at different venues in the city throughout the week, the charity's volunteers are busy helping people with a range of IT related requests. Often it's basic help that's required in getting online and learning how to use a new device, perhaps a smart phone for the first time. Crucially for those who are struggling to access essential services that have now moved fully online, Silver City Surfers are providing a lifeline. We are looking to expand our team of volunteers and help even more people. Many are reaching out as they find themselves in the vulnerable position of being unable to pay bills, make a GP appointment or claim benefits. Our tutors offer their support along with a cup of tea and reassuring chat.
Silver City Surfers is a small local charity which aims to help everyone within the City of Aberdeen and the North East with modern technology.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
