A Digital Inclusion Story

Age UK Worcester & Malvern Hills are proud to share a wonderful success story and testimony from Eve Robertson. A local author who had been struggling to get to grips with the ever-changing world of technology. 

Our Digital Champions supported Eve for around 18 months; helping her gain confidence, understanding and independence with using technology. The hands-on support provided by our Digital Champions helped her learn new skills and master existing ones, contributing to Eve being able to finish writing and then publishing her book - The Final Clue. 

In Eve's words

"As a local author, who has published the Final Clue on Amazon recently, I am writing to say how helpful I have found the assistance given by Age UK Worcester & Malvern Hills; providing their encouragement and support in instructing me on IT skills, which I have not found easy to keep abreast with".  

"I have attended lessons on a regular basis, over 18 months, and I find in this ever-changing world of technology, that their assistance has been invaluable".

"As a regular recipient of instruction from the Digital Champions, I have always found their tuition enormously helpful; aiding me in computer usage. As such, it has always been hard for me to master replying to emails and getting used to the layout of the screen".  

"During COVID, I retrieved an old manuscript of mine called the Final Clue, a work of historical fiction based between 1935 to 47. It portrays a glimpse of pre-war motor racing, farm and village life and the war years".

"Through my tuition, I was then able to use skills I was taught to bring it together. Age UK Worcester & Malvern Hills offer a wonderful range of services and I give the team my grateful thanks. What I say to others that may have never used technology or steer clear from it, have a go, and learn a new skill. Age UK Worcester & Malvern Hills are here to support you throughout".

The Final Clue

So, what is the book all about? Here is what Eve has said about the book:

"It’s a first edition about a young boy who grows up on a farm in a Leicestershire village pre second world war, who becomes drawn into a field of motorsport at Donnington, and the glamourous races of the Grand Prix’s of that era with its flamboyant drivers who came from Europe and beyond". 

"A myth arose that after the final GP of 38, one car failed to return to mainland Europe. Read how the story unravels during the second world war and how the grandfather’s Jewish connections influences their lives".

"Can the Final Clue provide the answer? I hope you will enjoy it".
