Ofcom research: Next Generation Services for Older and Disabled People

Ofcom’s Advisory Committee for Older and Disabled People has published research into the benefits that next generation super-fast broadband could bring to older and disabled people. The publication’s findings are based on desk research and in-depth interviews with senior representatives from across a range of industries, government, academia and the third sector.
The research gives examples of a range of services already being piloted or in development. The research also identifies some of the challenges and barriers which might hinder this potential including usability, accessibility and cost.
A copy of the full research Next Generation Services for Older and Disabled People can be found here.
