IT Catch-UP!! (360G-SCVO-a11b000000EtuvSAAR)

This project will enhance computer skills for a range of participants on their older adults programmes, and for those who attend support provision for the unemployed. Specific hooks (searching recipies, crafts etc) will be found for older people to help open up the possibilities of being online. A partnership is in place with the local CAB office for those who are unemployed or on ESA and who don't traditionally engage in training or with agencies. By helping these individuals work through their benefit claims or claimant commitments the project will open the door to greater exploration online and support this group to improve their digital skills. This project will see staff time being invested to embed IT ideas into courses already running for older adults, and for those needing to access IT. An additional staff member, who will report to the Activities Co-ordinator, who will report into the will be recruited to work a couple of days a week. All project delivery will be in Thurso.
