Beyond the Screen (360G-SCVO-a11b000000NBRQ6AAP)
With the development of ‘digital by default’ systems e.g. universal credit, digital capability has never been more important to tackle poverty, isolation and disadvantage facing communities. ‘Beyond the Screen’ aims to make the large and expansive digital world seem that much smaller – increasing confidence and knowledge of frontline workers to support the community in their digital needs and equip the community themselves with skills to use and enjoy all that the world-wide-web has to offer. IT suites within the bureau and in partnership with Airdrie Library will have a dedicated Adviser with access to PC, Laptop, tablet and mobile phone to provide one-to-one support. Using SCVO Digital Charter online resources, clients will be supported and assisted in using digital mediums to apply for welfare benefit applications, carry out web searches, open and maintain email accounts, understand safe browsing and basic MS Office packages. Individuals will be made aware of advantage of Apps and their ease of use in travelling, managing budgets and accessing information. Front-line workers will receive support, ensuring they are up-to-date with digital developments and confident in directing communities to maximise use of them. Volunteers, being at the heart of our services, will support the project at every stage - improving our communities’ digital presence and participation.

Recipient Org: Description | Airdrie CAB has been serving communities in Airdrie and surrounding areas since November 1971. We provide independent, impartial, free and confidential services, offering advice communities’ need for issues faced in their daily lives: money and debt advice, welfare rights, housing and many more. Specialist projects compliment generalist services, including qualified legal advice and representation at Tribunals, Sheriff Court and Court of Session. We actively seek to provide a voice to our communities and address areas of injustice through social policy work; working in partnership with local, regional and national organisations. Volunteers are pivotal to our operations – allowing representation of our communities and providing them valuable skills. Getting the right advice at the right time makes a significant impact; helping prevent homelessness, bankruptcy and unemployment, poor mental health - disastrous outcomes for individuals and their families; expensive for the public purse. Last year, we assisted 4916 individuals with 26,609 issues. |
