Device lending currently supports our aims by ensuring that in an ever-increasing digital world and economy that no-one where possible falls through the gaps and cracks for support in tackling and mitigating against the challenges and barriers of digital exclusion and isolation to support those identified in needing help to access equipment and the internet, which our clients are unable to afford. We have rolled out our online learning centre across the region so that those most in need can benefit, highlighting the need for digital inclusion and supporting the development of digital skills utilising our digital champions to ensure devices are set-up and tailored to meet the needs of the individuals currently using these and that any support is person-centred. Full training is provided to those that require support and we utilise the many programmes and tools we can access as a Microsoft Partner and across our networks linking and providing support across a range of topics including money guiders, money worries and financial management / budgeting, benefits / social security, training whether basic, general or advanced to meet the needs of the individual, employment and employability, wellbeing, support services, digital services to support equality and quality of life.
