Elderly Thornbury residents taught Zoom skills to stave off lockdown isolation

Residents at a retirement complex in Thornbury have learned basic computer skills with the help of a local charity. Churchill Retirement Living’s Alexandra Lodge has run a pilot training scheme in recent months to give apartment owners the skills to use devices such as a mobile, tablet or laptop. All owners were offered the chance to take part in a pilot digital skills group run by charity, CCBED. The charity helps people learn online skills to keep in touch, access services and facilities and crucially provide a lifeline to those who have become isolated due to Covid-19. Ten apartment owners at Alexandra Lodge originally signed up before lockdown meant the trainer could not visit the owners face to face as planned. However, with a little coaxing, a number of the group agreed to go ahead with the training remotely.
