The Digital Inclusion Project
So many of the devices in our homes now need to be linked to the internet or require an ‘app’ to operate them which can sometimes be very confusing! Many of the devices we have are only being used at the most basic level.
The Digital Inclusion Project in Lanarkshire is designed to help you set-up and use your digital devices and make the most of the features that are available. From seeing and speaking to relatives in Australia, turning subtitles on/off on your smart tv, paying your road tax online or setting up a regular online shopping order the Digital Inclusion project is here to help you.
