About Digital Inclusion volunteers
Location: Wythenshawe
Commitment: 1-4 hours per week
Women of Wythenshawe (WoW) is a women-led poverty action network of 12 women’s groups who are working together to take action on gendered poverty.
Having good digital skills helps women to engage in community action effectively.
Community Led Action and Savings Support (CLASS) is a small registered charity that supports women-led community action across Greater Manchester and Sheffield. CLASS convenes the Women of Wythenshawe network and will be the recruiting and supervising organisation for this volunteer role.
Skills and personal qualities required for the role:
Patience: Have you ever helped a parent or grandparent to learn to use a tablet or a laptop? If you have the patience to do this you will be ideal for the job!
Good verbal communicator: You will be providing tailored one to one support to people with very basic IT skills over the telephone. You will need to be a good communicator, able to explain practical digital tasks clearly, taking a step-by-step approach.
Reasonable ICT skills: You do not need to be an IT expert, but if you make regular use of email, web-browsing, video-conferencing, windows explorer file systems, and cloud storage systems like G:drive and Dropbox you will have the necessary experience for sharing with others.
