Help Me Be Digital offers basic one-to-one digital support to North Tyneside residents in their homes, to help them feel more digitally included and be able to access the NHS app to book GP appointments online and order prescriptions. It also runs drop-in sessions at venues like GP surgeries, shopping centres, local festivals and events.
The project aims to give digitally excluded residents in North Tyneside some basic digital skills and offer them basic advice and support using their smart devices. The project is supported by North Tyneside VODA and NHS North East North Cumbria ICB. Find out more at voda.org.uk/digital
