Get online Reading

Get Online Reading aims to use Reading’s highly literate population to help those who don’t have the skills or opportunity to make use of the internet.
They run drop-in sessions in several of Reading’s central libraries and other community venues all over the town.
Volunteers help attendees learn to use the internet, email, a new smartphone, tablet or computer.

Context: Reading is the headquarters of several large hi-tech companies such as Microsoft and Symantec, but in some areas of the town the proportion of the population without internet access is still much worse than the UK average.
