Description

One of the reasons why us humans are so successful as a species is because of our amazing capacity to learn throughout our lives. One can pick up a subject to learn all about it, but it becomes a bit difficult as we age. However, seniors over 60 years old can learn and participate in activities via the UK-based startup Mirthy’s online interactive community. The startup has also raised around $1.1 million (£800,000 approx) in its latest funding round.
