Mirthy is an online platform for professional public speakers, often retirees themselves, to provide online talks to older adults in the comfort of their homes.
Through our remote talks and interactive Q&A sessions, we want to connect older adults and allow them to exercise their interests and passions, wherever they’re based.
In the future, we aim to offer additional social groups and services, both online and off, to engage our community.
Mirthy’s mission is to help those in later life remain active, social and connected in their community.
