Gloucestershire Community IT Outreach Programme:
Bridging the digital divide locally.
The objective of our Community IT Outreach Programme is to bridge the inequality of access to technology and training in digital skills and services in an effort to reduce digital exclusion in our local community. We support deserving Gloucestershire projects by donating and installing good quality refurbished IT equipment.
We also help the local community with IT technical support, training and troubleshooting.
We want to increase and develop this programme; we know that there are many more community organisations in Gloucestershire who desperately need IT equipment but lack the funding resources.
