1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Cardiff.

Mrs B has been advised to continue shielding until August and she’s greatly missing all of her family especially as her seven great-grandchildren are due to increase to nine when her granddaughter’s twins arrive in July! She spends her days knitting for the new arrivals at the moment and wants to be able to keep in touch with her family online.

I helped Mrs B become more familiar with a messaging app on her tablet. This enabled Mrs B to send some messages to family including a 'Happy 21st Birthday' message to her granddaughter along with a glitzy birthday cake gif. Mrs B also discovered (unintentionally) how to put a rainbow wings filter on her selfie and was delighted to have finally cracked the code on how her grandchildren were using funny filters. Mrs B was very pleased with the instructions and was more confident in using the messaging app to keep in contact with her family.
