Annie Mannion | 19 Jun 2024Do you or someone you know live with dementia?
Join us for a FREE webinar packed with inspiring stories and practical tools on how tech and digital devices can help if you or someone you know has dementia.
On Wednesday, 10 July 2024, from 1-2pm BST, we'll be joined by AbilityNet's Disability Consultant, Alex Barker, and special guests from Alzheimer's Society, and Recreo VR to share their expert insights.
In the webinar, we will:
- Find out about digital tools that can help you manage daily life with dementia
- Learn how the Alzheimer's Society has been working with Recreo VR on a groundbreaking project to boost the wellbeing of people with dementia
- Share how AbilityNet and BT Group can help you and those you know with dementia with their tech, for free
All those who register for the session will receive the recording after broadcast, so do sign up even if you can't make it on the day.
Bring a friend, relative or client
Offering this free webinar is one of the ways in which we're trying to help bridge the digital divide, so to reach more people you could both sign up for yourself but also bring along a community group to learn together and share the advice.
If you work in an organisation with clients who could benefit from learning about the digital world, please do share this session and encourage them to sign up or show them how the Zoom webinar process works. It's also a great session for organisations who provide digital inclusion support to service users.
AbilityNet is working with BT Group to support people 65+ with getting online and using technology, such as:- learning how to use email
