Digital mentoring
Digitall brings together young people aged 18- 25 who are willing to share their knowledge and experience of using the computers and the internet with people aged over 45 who are interested in getting to grips with new technology. Young people act as mentors, supporting their mentee on a one-to-one basis to achieve their digital goals.
By bringing together people of different ages and experiences we hope to promote a better understanding between the generations and enable people from all backgrounds and ages to access the opportunities offered by new technology and the Internet.
"What a great way to discover that everyone has something to teach someone else and how much other people can benefit from basic computer knowledge that you take for granted." A mentor on the project
"I've been doing a computer course for the last few weeks, but the chance to have one-to-one mentoring is a great opportunity. It is more tailored to the level I'm at, and focused on my personal goals." A mentee on the project
Currently we are operating in two UK regions: London and Manchester
