What is the Helping others programme?
Our 'Helping others' programme, supports our mission to help as many people as possible gain the essential digital skills needed to help them thrive in the digital world.
We’ve worked with FutureDotNow to make sure the programme is aligned with our shared ambition of closing the digital skills gap in the UK workforce.

Our mission to help
