Age Action

Age Action supports and advocates for equality and human rights for all older people. Everything we do is based on a recognition of the diversity of identity and situation among older people and a concern for equality for all older people. In addressing ageing, our work includes a concern to influence perspectives on and responses to ageing. Age Action works to promote ageing in place, life‐long learning, and health and wellbeing for older people, empowering them to live as active citizens.

As part of our fight against digital exclusion, Age Action's Getting Started Computer Training programme delivers one-to-one training on computers, tablets and smartphones to people over the age of 55 all over Ireland. Since 2006 Age Action has trained more than 38,000 older people with the assistance of thousands of volunteer tutors. In addition, the Getting Started KIT offers remote tutoring by means of phone or video call.

CoderDojo and Code Club

At Code Club and CoderDojo we think all children should have the opportunity to learn to code, no matter who they are or where they come from. We work with a global community of volunteers, educators, and partners to run free clubs where 7- 18year olds build and share their ideas.

We believe in learning through making, and our coding projects offer young people plenty of opportunities to be creative and to share their creations with each other.
Code Club is part of the Raspberry Pi Foundation, a UK-based charity.
