Are you a community organisation that helps people in the North East?

We're running a free event to bring together community organisations, project leaders, digital champions and learners from County Durham, Newcastle and beyond to:

  • Learn about Let’s Get Digital – a place-based programme helping organisations support people with digital motivation, confidence and skills.
  • Hear first-hand stories from project managers, digital champions and learners about what’s working and the difference it’s making.
  • Take part in engaging workshops designed to spark ideas and share best practice.
  • Network over lunch with other organisations passionate about inclusion and community empowerment.

Whether your group is already active in digital inclusion or just beginning to explore it, this event is a great opportunity to connect, collaborate, and learn about how Let's Get Digital is supporting a growing movement to tackle digital exclusion across the North East and how you can be part of it.

Digital Unite's support has had a genuinely transformative impact on our work. It’s not just about helping us with digital access - it’s about opening our eyes to how digital inclusion can become a core part of everything we do.
