This project will work with people who lack basic digital skills and voluntary sector staff who convene support groups for them to engage in. They will recruit, train and support teams of volunteers to coach people on basic digital skills at groups or activities that people are already attending. They will also identify one or two key people at each group and work with them to embed digital skills coaching in their day-to-day interactions with those they support. The project will work with people in places and groups that they already attend, e.g. tenant fora in sheltered housing, day centres, community centres, food banks, youth clubs. Each place will be visited at least three times by the project, (1) an initial visit to start the conversation and complete a Basic Digital Skills initial Assessment; (2) a second visit focused on coaching participants on skills gaps; (3) a final visit including some direct coaching, re-assessment of Basic Digital Skills and some legacy planning. The focus will be on identifying what participants are most interested in learning, so that they maintain a sense of motivation. The training for volunteers and also for group leaders at organisations we visit will be delivered in partnership with their local O2 Digital Guru, and will include content on capturing bespoke "how to guides" for people who struggle to remember what they have learned.
