Digital Inclusion Alliance
Our aim is for Stockport to be a 100% digital borough where no one is left behind or faces inequalities as a result of their digital situation.The Digital Inclusion Alliance is a network of partners from all sectors, working collaboratively, to help shape, support and promote digital inclusion in Stockport.
We ensure that residents have the devices, connectivity and skills to get online for the first time and use the internet to do things that benefit them daily.
Trusted faces in local places
Our approach is to deliver digital skills support through community groups and organisations that already provide trusted support. This way, there is more chance of reaching digitally excluded people.
We are always looking for more partners to grow the network, and any individual, business, organisation or group wanting to help tackle digital exclusion in Stockport can join us.
