A resident from Dorchester has benefited from free digital sessions on how to change suppliers online and has managed to save over £450 a year on energy bills with the first switch.
Barbara Scanlon went online at Dorchester library under the guidance of her local volunteer Digital Champion Mike Watson. She visited a price comparison website and worked out that with just a few digital moves she would be over £40 a month better off.
Mike has been helping her master a range of digital skills to do household bills and chores online such as paying Council Tax, setting up insurance, joining a loyalty discount scheme, using email, printing and using price comparison sites.
Mike said: “All Digital Champions are able to help you master the skills to do these essential household tasks online and a whole lot more. Don’t waste time and money, just book a slot to see your local Digital Champion and we will help you every step of the way. It won’t cost you a penny.”
Digital Champions work in communities, usually in libraries, one-to-one with people to help improve their digital skills. They are volunteers who enjoy using computers and have the patience and enthusiasm to show others how to benefit from being online, in this case how to save money.
