We’re supporting Blackburn with Darwen Council and other local partners on a long-term project to help people without digital devices, internet connections or digital skills to get online.
To kick that work off, a new leaflet – Digital Support For All – has been produced which is packed with information about getting online, plus the local organisations and support services that can help people to: –
- Access digital devices like tablets and phones, plus SIM cards and data
- Use public access computers and WiFi
- Access cheaper broadband tariffs and phone packages
- Develop their digital skills – and grow their confidence
- Learn about staying safe online.
The leaflet can be used during work with residents who are ‘digitally excluded’, to tell them about the help that’s on offer.
