Tech Chat 2026

A staff member will use Be Connected, an Australian government initiative committed to building the confidence, digital skills, and online safety of older Australians, to lead a group learning activity. All you need to do is book yourself in with our desk staff or online through Humanitix. Each month will have a new topic to work through. Join us for a social chat with a cuppa to learn about some digital basics so you can feel safe and confident, participating in today’s digital world. Each month we take the topic and discuss as a group with guidance from a staff member to answer questions and provide further resources. There will also be an opportunity to learn how to use the Be Connected online resources to continue learning at home.
