Tablet Lending Library information

How the Tablet Lending Library works

 

The tablet lending scheme is here to help local organisations and professionals to connect digitally excluded adults to a free tablet device loan and data. On receiving a device the borrower will also be offered help to use the device through Wigan Council's TechMates initiative

This form can also be used by organisations to request a loan of several tablet devices to run your own digital inclusion project.

Please note all requests to loan a tablet device are subject to availability.

The Digital Communities Partnership

 

If you're a local organisation or group that wants to help residents gain essential digital skills to flourish in life, then why not consider joining the Digital Communities Partnership?

You don't need to be a digital expert or an IT professional. Like most community organisations, you're probably providing digital support to our Wigan Borough residents every day without even realising. Organisations delivering this kind of support are ideally placed to become Digital Communities Partners.

Partners come together each quarter for a virtual meeting, where they have the opportunity to tackle digital exclusion together through the sharing of knowledge, collaborative working, and the development of digital strategies.
