About Silver Thread

Making intergenerational digital learning simple, accessible, and scalable — across homes, schools, and communities.

How It Started

Silver Thread began in a local community — helping older people learn how to use their phones.

The impact was immediate: more independence, more confidence, more connection.

We realised this could work anywhere.

The Problem

Technology is part of everyday life — but many older people feel excluded from it.

Simple things like sending messages, downloading apps, or managing settings can feel overwhelming.

The Opportunity

At the same time, younger people already have these skills.

What's missing is a simple, structured way to connect the two.

The Vision

To make intergenerational digital learning simple, accessible, and scalable — across homes, schools, and communities.
