We live in a digital age with virtually unlimited knowledge at our fingertips! Keen to explore and keep our customers vigilant and familiar with technology, we offer regular sessions from our designated I.T suite, where customers are supported to maintain confidence in basic computer skills. In reality it is comparatively easy to identify a person such as a vulnerable adult being targeted or exposed to the possible threat of abuse, however living in a digital age can make recognising these signs extremely difficult. Given the high number in reports of targeted online abuse, the possibilities of customers being exposed to this has increased exponentially over the years. Therefore we believe it imperative that regular guidance and open dialogue on this matter is an important part of safeguarding our customers.
I.T sessions include form filling, light spread sheets use, emails, creative writing, compiling news letters and blogging content, but most importantly guidance in how to use the internet and social media platforms responsibly, and remain safe whilst doing so.
