Pilgrim Care’s page

Story

A new project for Pilgrim Care, we are deploying small 'Pi' internet connected devices which connect to an elderly person's TV and enable them to stay connected with the local community, watching local church services, engaging with chair exercise classes, and enjoying locally based TV programs of cultural or historic interest.  There is no programming, tapes or disks needed for these devices, the viewer simply switches on their TV at the appropriate time to view a programme. This is a lovely way to allow people who may be isolated, to stay in touch with the community.

A donation of £79 funds the purchase of one of these devices and its programming for a year.
