Nowadays many aspects of life – whether it’s planning a trip, making new friends or organising bills – involve being online. Many essential tasks, such as paying for parking and shopping, have also moved online. This can make life difficult if you’re not comfortable online, with simple tasks becoming that little bit more challenging. It might even mean you’re missing out on opportunities.

Hi Digital, developed by Vodafone Foundation, is a free online resource to help you improve your digital skills. Perhaps you’ve rarely been online, or perhaps you have some experience but haven’t had the confidence to explore all the possibilities of the digital world.

Hi Digital includes step-by-step courses on a variety of simple digital topics. You can complete the courses by yourself or with a family member or friend, working at your own pace and choosing the lessons best suited to you. The platform is also suitable for those looking to help an older person get more confident online.
