about us
Digital Rhondda Programme
Our Digital Programme was initially created as a response to the lack of digital support available post Covid-19. The Digital Programme is currently funded for 3 years and is in its second year. Early 2021 we identified that there was a lack of opportunities for people to access the vital help and support that was need to access online resources and important services that had move online due to the pandemic. Digital inclusion and fighting issues such as data poverty have become a key part of the programmes aims and objectives over the last year. The programme operates on a person centred and friendly approach to providing the best possible support for people in Rhondda looking for tech support.
Become digitally engaged!
The digital program looks to offer a range of opportunities for people to become digitally engaged with online activities through the support we offer. We look to support anyone in need of some digital support or just seeking some friendly advice about devices people may have. Through a meeting online or safe doorstep conversation we hope to be able to support anyone facing digital issues.
Events and workshops
We offer a range of digital workshops for people to engage in throughout Rhondda. The workshops cover topics such as online safety, What digital services are online and other topics that are raised to us by members of the community. We look to deliver workshops based on what people need the most and are informed by community members and what’s most important to them.
We also host event in Rhondda which celebrate the digital world. We were able to host a digital event at Llwynypia college where we invite local universities, schools and business in to the same space for local children to see what digital opportunities are available to them on their doorstep. Keep an eye out on our socials for the next up and coming events!
We reuse any donations of any unwanted devices.
To support the program, we take in donations of any unwanted or unused devices you may have at home. We aim to tackle the issue around these devices being stored away or kept in a cupboard and repurpose them for people who are digitally excluded. these are a great support to the project and are used in our workshops, device loan options and help recycling old equipment.
