OPAL GoOnLine @Home

OPAL GoOnLine @Home (previously in Touch) is a new service being offered across the rural areas of West Cheshire to older individuals who have limited experience or no experience of using technology to stay in touch with family, friends and their communities.

Our experienced OPAL GoOnLine volunteers will support and mentor individuals to demonstrate the positive aspects of using technology.

Android tablets, which will be Sim activated and set up in accordance with each individual's needs, will be loaned for a period of time so that the person can experience the positive aspects of being connected to on-line opportunities.

To find out more or to get involved with this service please email bev.stubbs@opalservices.org.uk
