A laid-back drop-in session at the Highfield Community Association Carer Group for carers that are beginners and improvers in digital skills. Come along to find out more about our groups and 1:1 sessions to support you with getting the most out of being online. Learn essential digital skills, from using your smartphone, laptop or tablet to navigating the internet safely.

FREE SIM Cards and Data: Thanks to the National Databank, we can provide free Vodafone, O2 and Three SIM cards and data, ensuring you stay connected while you learn.

Access to Technology:  We have a lending bank of tablets for you to test out your digital skills.  Our easy to follow manuals and step-by-step online tutorials courtesy of Learn My Way, can support you to gradually build your confidence.

Have a smartphone, laptop or tablet gathering dust because you are not sure how to work it? Perhaps you have been handed down a device or have had to take over managing online accounts for someone you are caring for - we can help you with that too.

Supporting Health & Wellbeing: Get help navigating apps related to NHS and GP services. Discover online resources to support your physical and mental wellbeing.
Support your children online: Struggling with your children’s school apps, Parent Pay or setting up parental controls on gaming apps? - We are here to help.

Keep in contact: Master social media to keep in contact with friends. Find support groups online and in your local area.

Take time out: Research your interests. Plan and book tickets, trips and events. Access online video, music and current affairs sites.

Financial Services: Get advice about online banking and financial advice services. Learn how to identify scams and stay safe online.

Shopping: Find out how to save money shopping online using comparison and cashback websites, signing up for loyalty cards and applying discount codes.
