Using a £20,000 Government grant, we are donating around 60 mobile devices and laptop computers, with up to two years’ worth of connection, to people who don’t have access to the internet.
Get support
Our volunteer digital champions are available to help people use their device.
Some people cannot easily access everything they need online – this could be for financial reasons or because they lack the skills and confidence. If that’s you, we do have support available.
Call our Digital Hotline on 01305 221048 (Monday to Friday, 10am to midday.)
