As part of our Digital Inclusion Project, we’re helping seniors embrace technology to reduce social isolation and feel more connected.

 One of the highlights was the Digital Stories exhibition, where people aged 65+ showcased their creativity by scanning photos, recording videos, and sharing their personal stories.

Emily, our Programme Coordinator, was moved by the participants, saying, “Their stories matter - they are valued members of our community.” Marlborough’s Mayor, Nadine Taylor, also praised how the stories brought Marlborough’s history to life.

One participant, who had attended multiple workshops, proudly shared her video and photo display with her family, saying, “I feel so proud doing this.” It was a big step towards her digital independence, and her family was thrilled to see her growth.

With over 80 attendees at the exhibition’s opening, Emily hopes this will inspire other seniors to embrace technology. Upcoming workshops will cover online banking, digital safety, and staying connected through FaceTime and Skype.

This exhibition wasn’t just about art - it was a celebration of connection, creativity, and the incredible lives of Marlborough’s senior community.

Through the Digital Inclusion Project, we’re supporting people in navigating the digital world and reducing isolation. We can’t wait to see what’s next in this journey!
