IT Support for Disabled and Older People At Home


Current opportunities

All across the UK our 450+ volunteers support older and/or disabled people at home to offer one to one support with their technology, whether that's a computer, laptop, smartphone or tablet. Our volunteers will: Troubleshoot 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 eg shop online, send/receive emails and video calls with family/friends. Make adaptations to support a disabled person's specific technology needs.
