Staying Safe Online
A free, 90-minute workshop that helps seniors spot scams, protect their information, and feel confident using their computers and phones.
Delivered onsite by the Lumabit team – we make learning digital skills simple, friendly, and fun.
What the workshop covers
- Spot scams and phishing emails
- Use strong passwords and manage accounts safely
- Recognise safe websites and pop-ups

We are helping retirement communities across South Africa make technology less intimidating and a lot more enjoyable.
