The Covid -19 pandemic brought an opportunity for sheltered and retirement services providers to either review or establish their digital engagement for their residents. One key change many organisations recognised they needed to make was around digital platforms and how residents interacted with them- strategies should explicitly include how organisations can support older people to engage.

Join us for the launch of our Digital engagement and older people Good Practice Guide to hear key content from the Guide, including:

• The findings from our sector survey on digital engagement of older people
• The legal and regulatory context
• The benefits of and barriers to digital engagement
• How housing providers can support older people to digitally engage on a strategic level
• How front-line staff can support older people to digitally engage on a practical level
• Considerations in relation to people living with dementia or other mental health condition

Our Good Practice Guide | Digital engagement and older people has been produced in partnership with tpas and our event speakers are:

• Rebecca Mollart, erosh Chief Executive
