By acquiring or building on your digital knowledge, you can learn how to connect online with friends and family, for example. Or if you are trying to look for or change jobs, then it is much easier to do it online and Digital Wolves can help with that.
Councillor Obaida Ahmed, City of Wolverhampton Council Cabinet Member for Digital and Community Inclusion, said: “We are increasingly living in a digital world at a time when not everyone has access to the equipment or have the knowledge to be able to get online and make the most of how being digitally aware can enhance their everyday lives.
“I am extremely pleased that we are participating in this national initiative once again to help get our local community online and as digitally savvy as possible. Participating in Get Online Week very much aligns with our digital inclusion approach here at the Council and the Digital Wolves team has been working hard with key partners to ensure those attending can get the most out of the event.
“I’d encourage everyone who can to attend the sessions - make becoming more digitally clever the one thing you do next week and find out how it can make your life much easier.”
