Working with older people

 

26% of those aged 75+ have never used the internet, despite making up 19% of the total population.

Older people can face greater barriers to getting online - from accessibility problems to motivational barriers or a lack of familiarity with technology - but the benefits are huge, including social inclusion, and better access to health information and services.

These resources can help you both reach and support older people in your communities, to make sure they’re not missing out on the benefits of an online life.

Our Specialist Older People Network can also help those with particular expertise in working with this audience find relevant information, advice and resources.
