Keep in mind that this is not a global search like you would find in Google, the search is reserved to specific activities within the HUB. For example, if you are in the Art category, you could search ”colouring”, “crafts” or maybe a theme like “christmas” or “flowers”.

Tips for the Carers
  • Add the Hub to the browsers Favorites so the PLWD can have easy access to it.
  • It’s recomended to use a computer (desktop or laptop) to get the full experience of the Hub. If you use the Microsot Edge internet browser, you will be able to paint, color, write and highlight in the activies with your mouse.
  • Show the person you are caring for how to operate the internet browser itself: minimize a window, switch tabs, maximize a window, close a tab, reload the page, go back to previous page, etc.
