Description
Reconnect is a service offering support to adults and families in East Lothian and Edinburgh to help them to improve wellbeing by increasing digital and social inclusion.
We run digital groups with partner organisations across East Lothian and Edinburgh, providing opportunities to either learn about technology and feel supported by others, or meet up with other people and feel more included in the community. Each session is designed from the experiences and input of our coordinators, with the aim of making them easy, approachable and enjoyable, and are open to anyone who needs help with digital, including families, young adults, those seeking employment or the elderly.
