A great photo of the members of the D8 Surfers Club and their wonderful tutor, Sonya, taken on Tuesday.
They prove that being tech-savvy has no age limit, with members varying in age from 72 to 94!
They were interviewed by RTE just before Christmas where they spoke about their positive experience of the club.

The next session of @bloopgroopdublin will be taking place on Sunday, 22nd March from 6:30pm to 9:30pm in Studio 2 at The Digital Hub.
ℹ Bloop Groop is an evening for electronic musicians & producers of all levels - from the mildly curious to professionals - to hang out, test out kit and make music, culminating in a structured collaborative jam where everyone gets involved.
Inspired by Bristol’s Bleep Klub, Bloop Groop is less about the gear, and more about having fun, learning and making music together, in a low-stress, playful environment.
Bloop Groop #15 is brought to you by Caroline Swords and Gary Byrne.
Bloop Groop is a proud member of @flux_dublin and is kindly supported by The Digital Hub.
ℹ For tickets and further information on future events, check out @bloopgroopdublin`s website.

To mark National Tree week 2026, we want to recognise the importance of the historic pear tree at The Digital Hub. It’s estimated to be aged in the range of 150 to 200 years old, and it still bears fruit!
RTE Nationwide visited The Digital Hub last September for the annual community harvest of the pear tree. Watch back <See link in bio. Jump to yellow marker ~14:30 Min>
Photos:
🍐 A mechanical elevated platform is needed to harvest the pears from the top branches.
🍐 A pear picked from the tree — in 2022 DNA analysis confirmed it as “Marechal de Cour", also known as "Conseiller de la Cour”, a variety popular in Victorian Britain, from where it likely spread in 1847.
🍐 Members of The Digital Hub, local community groups and students of NCAD Field gather at The Digital Hub for the annual community harvest of fruit from the pear tree.
🍐 A throw-back to Spring of last year — we’re expecting the tree to blossom in the coming weeks.
