Pro Senectute beider Basel is the region’s leading specialist organisation and point of contact for issues relating to older people. We offer older people a wide range of services in the areas of advice, education, sport and practical support.
Through its ‘Digital Café’ initiative, Pro Senectute beider Basel provides mobile phone and tablet support for older people, taking place right where people are – in the region’s cafés. Buying a ticket, installing an app, sending photos or setting up a chat group, and much more. We guide older people into the digital world.
