Good for seniors, families & carers
Many calls come from adult children who live abroad or in another county and want to make sure their parents are safe and confident online.
We can start with a short call, agree what needs to be done, and I take it from there – patient, friendly and always respectful of the person I’m helping.

About me
My name is Ray Michael – your local, patient digital helper.
For over 30 years I’ve worked with technology, training and support. Many seniors and families don’t need more apps – they need someone calm who explains things in a simple way.
I’m based in County Cavan and support people across the Midlands, Lakelands & Heartlands region – with kindness, patience and clear language.
