Digital Seniors Coach Eastern suburbs
About Digital Seniors
At Digital Seniors, we offer free, one-on-one tech support for seniors at our welcoming drop-in hubs across Auckland and Wellington. Our incredible volunteer coaches are at the heart of everything we do, creating a positive, fun, and social environment where seniors feel truly supported and empowered as they learn. Whether they want to connect with friends and whānau,share photos, pay bills, or shop online, we're here to guide them every step of the way, helping
them build confidence and independence in the digital world.
All our coaching is personalized and moves at the senior's own pace. There's no need for bookings or memberships – seniors simply pop in, and we do our very best to help them right away.
Why Volunteer With Us?
Being a Digital Seniors volunteer is incredibly rewarding! Our coaches often share the joy of seeing seniors arrive with a worry and leave with a big smile, having mastered a new skill. It's truly wonderful to be part of an organization that's passionate about digital inclusion and dedicated to helping our older communities comfortably use phones, tablets, and laptops to navigate and connect in our digital society.
