Digital Guides (Volunteer befrienders)

Help needed

Can you use a phone or laptop? Then you can volunteer as a Digital Guide and make a big difference to the life of one of our Digital Learners, especially in these uncertain times when digital skills are more important than ever. You’ll provide support on a one-to-one basis to improve basic digital skills, to complete simple tasks on a device, keep in touch with friends and family, apply for jobs or simply browse the web safely. In doing so, you’ll help combat social isolation, improve confidence and increase wellbeing. You don’t have to be an IT expert – if you have a friendly and positive attitude and a basic understanding of digital you can make a big difference to someone’s life!

Support needed in these areas

In East Lothian and Edinburgh.
