Vodafone stores on Cladstone Street in Clonmel Town and in the Thurles Shopping Centre are encouraging older adults to visit their stores for Drop-In Fridays from 10am-1pm each Friday for free learning courses in digital learning, building confidence and skills, especially for those feeling isolated from digital society and vulnerable to being left behind.
Launched in 2021, the free online Hi Digital course is divided into short lessons that teach older adults how to access the internet, use smartphones, stay safe online, and identify and avoid scams and fraud.
In 2023, the Vodafone Hi Digital programme expanded to offer in-person support for older adults in Vodafone stores nationwide with ‘Drop-in Fridays’. This service provides free practical support on using phones, tablets, and computers. Due to its popularity, Vodafone has added 13 additional stores to the programme nationwide.
Hi Digital Drop-In Fridays occur every Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., with trained ‘Hi Digital Ambassadors’ offering personalised assistance. For those unable to attend on Fridays, the free online course at hidigital.ie provides useful tips and information.
