Are you interested in helping those who struggle with digital skills? 

Datchworth Parish Council have recently secured funding to run free weekly drop-in IT digital support sessions

The first digital session/IT learning session will take place on:

Tuesday 18th January at Datchworth Village Hall
from 1:00pm until 3:00 pm

The sessions will take place weekly over next 10 weeks. We will provide a friendly, informal environment with a cup of tea & cake, where learners can bring along their own devices or use the IT equipment provided, Support is offered on a one-to-one basis and tailored to individual needs.

To become a volunteer you don’t need to be an IT expert or qualified in any way, as long as you can operate a mobile phone, tablet or PC / laptop and be able to impart your own personal knowledge and ways to do things onto others.
