Age UK Croydon: Safeguarding Guidelines for Zoom
The security and confidence of the older person and a framework for staff and volunteers to follow to ensure this is paramount.
Challenging biases in who can be digitally included
Age UK Croydon’s Memory Tree Café supports people living with dementia and their carers. Bringing the service online has led to some positive outcomes for those attending.
Supporting clients to access online activities
Supporting people to access an activity they enjoy helps build confidence to use Zoom independently for other activities and interactions.
