Nominet Devices & Digital Skills

Smartlyte continues improving people’s lives through digital, with our exciting new Nominet, Devices and Digital Skills project.  .

Working with our national partners, Nominet and the Good Things Foundation, the project aims to help people whose lives have been affected by digital exclusion by tackling the challenges faced by digitally excluded people by providing devices, data connection and digital skills support.

Not being able to access the digital world can disadvantage digitally excluded people which in turn creates inequality. What we sometimes take for granted means people who are digitally excluded are unable to achieve. This includes everyday essential things like making a video call to family members, applying for jobs online, ordering prescriptions or even accessing essential government information.

 

The Nominet, Devices and Digital Skills project is very time specific with a limited number of devices available and will only work directly with referrals from professional organisations only. To register, the process is very simple;

  1. Register your organisation as a partner
  2. Complete the details of your device recipient9s0. Maximum of 5 recipients per organisation.
  3. Complete an online impact survey for each recipient registered 4 weeks after delivery of the device.

Please note, we cannot guarantee that all registered referrals will be successful.
