Netley Homes is a proud member of the Digital Champion Network and over the past year has been encouraging residents and their families to stay connected online using the very latest in touchscreen technology; installed into every home.
The internet, with such things as Skype and BBC News, helps people to stay in touch and participate in our ever increasing technology focused society.
Janet from Stafford, seeing her Grandson on Skype for the very first time
This year, as a Digital Champion, Netley Homes wanted to reach out to the wider community and help those perhaps not lucky enough to have a ready supply of IT literate carers on hand to guide them through the basics.
On the 30th October 2011, the clocks went back an hour. With our extra hour, we pledged to help Janet (pictured above) to get online for the very first time.
Looking ahead to 2012, we at Netley Homes would like to continue pledging our time to help those in need of some IT support. As such; if you know of anyone in the North West of England, who you belive could benefit from a helping hand to get online, then please get in touch with us at:
