Get Online Week 2024

Get free and friendly help to improve your digital confidence and go online!

Sunderland is excited to be hosting a series of events as part of the Good Things Foundation’s National Get Online Week.

In a world increasingly connected through the internet, it’s vital that everyone has the opportunity to develop essential digital skills and access online resources. Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 adults in the UK lack the most basic digital skills needed for everyday life, and over 1 in 20 households have no internet access at all?

We want to fix the digital divide in Sunderland so that all residents are empowered to be a part of our Smart City, through digital literacy and connectivity.
