ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION

Our Digital & Financial programme will tackle the growing problems of financial wellbeing, social isolation & the widening of the computer skills gap. With many services moving ever increasingly online, such as banking & medical appointment booking, it is important to make sure everyone in society has the skills needed to access these more convenient forms of service. This agenda is backed up by the push by the Government to modernise its services via the Transforming for a Digital Future policy
