West Essex charity working with vulnerable people is seeking laptops and phones

The Council for Voluntary Service Uttlesford has launched a digital inclusion project in West Essex and is seeking laptops, tablets and smartphones.

This exciting new two-year project will support vulnerable individuals and families impacted by the pandemic through loss of income, illness and the need to self-isolate. Also those who have limited or no access to digital devices, and are unable to access employment support, skills for life, online shopping, banking, or health interventions and appointments.

The project has a particular emphasis on providing tailored support to people experiencing poor mental health, as well as and those from minority ethnic communities.
