The Ministry of Equality, in collaboration with the Customer Care Hub, will be hosting a targeted event promoting digital inclusion among persons aged 65 and over. This event follows directly on from the Ministry of Equality’s recently held Age Symposium where suggestions and feedback received highlighted some of the digital barriers experienced by this demographic.
The initiative focuses on equipping older persons with the skills, confidence and support needed to navigate the e-services offered by HMGoG.
The event will include a short presentation by staff from the Customer Care Hub. Participants interested in hands-on practical support, help or advice with e-services can also book an appointment with a Customer Care Hub representative that same morning. Appointments will take place at the Customer Care Hub, 323 Main Street.
The event, which is free and which will take place on Monday 13th April at 10am at the Charles Hunt Room, John Mackintosh Hall, is open to Gibraltar residents aged 65 and over. Registration for the event is essential, and anyone interested in attending should contact Tel 200 66819 or email: equality.events@gibraltar.gov.gi
Minister for Equality, the Hon Christian Santos GMD MP, ‘Digital inclusion for older persons was one of the key points arising from our very first Age Symposium. Therefore, I am very happy that this event will address the digital gap that some older persons may experience.”
