It’s Get Online week – 14th – 18th October 

Did you know that more than 5 million people have never been online? There’s also millions of people who don’t have the digital skills needed to negotiate life and work online. This means so many of you could be losing out on opportunities like jobs, training, budgeting and better retail deals online because you have little or even no digital skills.

The aim of the Get Online Week campaign is to support organisations who are running events and initiatives to get more people online and also improve their digital skills.

Barnet Homes is running several events this week, where our volunteer Digital Champions will be on hand to help residents get online and understand how to navigate a computer/laptop/smartphone. So if you are local and looking for some help to improve your digital skills, or know somebody who would benefit – pop along to one of the below drop-in sessions.
