Manx Telecom and Zurich have joined forces to help elderly people on the Island get to grips with technology.
A pilot project between the two companies and Southern Befrienders has helped a number of people get online.
MT provided iPads and free access to 4G for the six-month scheme and Zurich offered technical support - answering questions and showing the three participants how it was done.
Southern Befrienders scheme manager Val Haslam says it was a great fit for their work:
