Bridging the Digital Divide
We help people in our community overcome digital poverty by supporting them through the online process of accessing government social security, housing, unemployment, and healthcare benefits to which they are entitled.
We also advocate for some of the most vulnerable people in London in debt disputes with utilities and government bodies. Our work includes visa applications as well as problems with identity and immigration status.
No need to bring a laptop or smart phone, we have the technology!
