Golden Surfers (360G-SCVO-a11b000000EtrQ8AAJ)

This project will run a series of basic digital skills classes using tablets (ipad/androids) for tenants living in Sheltered Housing across their Housing Support Service. The digital training course will give basic IT skills to everyone, on every level, no matter their experience. Each class will last 6 weeks - the aim is to deliver 15 classes and provide additional support sessions to increase the digital skills of approximately 200 tenants across 1 year. Activity will be delivered at 13 locations across Renfrewshire. Incorporated in the training there will be opportunities for their Sheltered Housing Officers to be trained up with the basic digital skills. They will provide each tenant and staff member with a training manual. The project will be managed by the Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinator for Renfrewshire Council Housing Support Services and will also link into the Digital Renfrewshire Programme to share the project success and learnings.

Recipient Org: Description In our organisation we deliver support services within 13 sheltered & amenity housing complexes. This is specifically designed to comfortably meet the needs of people who are aged 60 years or over. These properties are easy to maintain and offer tenants the safety of living in a secure environment, while also enabling people to retain their independent lifestyle. Our aim is to understand each individual’s need and work to enable our tenants to live independently and be actively engaged within the wider community, by providing activities that give these people greater opportunities to meet new people socially but also have on going wellbeing programmes and projects that improve their physical and mental health, and reduce social isloation. All our sheltered complexes have a communal lounge where social activities take place, these activities will vary between complexes and tenants are free to participate if they wish to do so.
