Digitall is a mentoring scheme running in Greater Manchester and London, matching 18-25 year old internet savvy volunteers (mentors) with over 45s (mentees) who want to get to grips with online (or digital) technology. Mentors and mentees meet one-to-one for an hour a week for between 6-12 weeks to unlock the Internet. This might include accessing online services, emailing, exploring social networks and using technology to search for job opportunities.

Young TimeBank inspires and empowers young people to take action in their communities, on their own terms, based upon their own concerns and ambitions. We provide the resources and support to help young people address issues that are important to them through school and community projects. These projects give young people opportunities to take control of issues that affect them and address them constructively, as well as enhancing their sense of self-worth, as individuals and as members of their communities.
