Nearly half of people over 65 are ‘uncomfortable’ using the internet and would rather do the weekly food shop, go to the bank and book a holiday with a travel agent in person.
A poll of 1,987 older people revealed that 45 percent don’t feel completely confident when using the internet. As a result, 40 percent of those would rather run errands face-to-face than online, as well as browse their local garden center, shop for clothes in stores and purchase train tickets at the station.
