Carers Leeds volunteers are integral to our service and we wouldn’t be able to run the range and diversity of services that we do offer if it weren’t for them.

Are you interested in digital inclusion and want to make a difference by supporting others to use technology?

Our new volunteer digital inclusion befriender role will involve offering one-to-one digital support to digitally excluded carers (in their homes or in the community) who want to build their confidence using technology. This role might include supporting carers to:

• Access and use equipment and devices to get online.
• Become confident using technology.
• Use different apps relevant to their needs and interests (such as games, online shopping, video calling and online banking).
• Access online support groups and events.

This role will make a difference and empower individuals to feel more independent and confident in their own ability regardless of any perceived barriers they face.

If you are interested in applying for this role or want some more information, please get in touch with Holly, our Digital Inclusion Co-ordinator, at holly.wilkins@carersleeds.org.uk or 07494 272 022.
