As an AbilityNet Tech volunteer you can help unleash the power of technology to ensure that older people and those with a disability are not excluded from the digital world. Across the UK our 300 volunteers visit older and/or disabled people at home, or currently contact them via other methods so that the service is safe for everyone, to offer one-to-one support with their technology, whether that’s a computer, laptop, smartphone or tablet. Our volunteers: - Trouble shoot technical issues. - Offer impartial advice on technology. - Set up new tech and install hardware and software. - Show people how to use their tech at home e.g. shop online, send and receive emails and Skype with family and friends. - Make adaptations to support a disabled person’s specific technology needs. What will I be doing? - Contacting clients to arrange home visits (or supporting them remotely). - Feeding back on progress via our online ticketing system. - Supporting your local County Coordinator with promoting the ITCanHelp service in the local area. - Getting together with other tech volunteers at team meetings and wider company events. - Undergoing training on adaptive technology. - Supporting other volunteers through our online chat facility.
