We partner with corporates, central government, social housing providers, and local authorities to deliver positive and practical out-of-the-box training interventions, tailored solutions, and ground-breaking new work.

Our programmes typically target those who need support getting online (Digital Inclusion), help with managing their money better (Financial Wellbeing), transacting online with the government (Assisted Digital), and ending digital poverty by supplying everything people need at the point of need (digital support) and finding digital skills work (Employability).
