Everything is going online; without the skills to use technology, people are becoming more and more excluded from the modern world and all it has to offer. A Tech Mate is a digital mentor that provides one-on-one support to help people learn about technology and use it confidently and safely.

Our Tech Mates bring digital literacy and inclusion to people in their communities. This might range from showing people how to download apps, setting up an email, introducing people to social media so they can connect with friends, families, and groups, and much more.

We get it. Teaching people how to use technology can seem daunting, but you aren’t expected to know everything. In fact, the best skills you can have are the ability to admit that you don’t know everything, and to be able to learn on the go…

Now, onto the nitty gritty:

• All of our volunteers receive free training • Volunteers are required to have a National Police Check, and • A Covid Vaccination Certificate

There’s no waiting to see your impact – it’s obvious from the outset. What we do is really an uplifting and amazing experience.
