Digital Support

Please note our services are exclusively for Camden residents aged 55 and over. If you live outside the borough, please consider the Digital Support services at our sister charity, Age UK City of London.

Drop-in Sessions 

We run educational sessions without need for an appointment at public venues across the borough. These are on a one-to-one basis with our volunteers in a group setting. Whether you want to learn about your phone, tablet, laptop, how to use email, NHS access, scams advice, or generally improving your digital skills, our Digital Champions will be more than happy to teach you to become a skilled online citizen. 

Our sessions take place at the following community locations:

1. Fitzrovia Community Centre 
   2 Foley St, London W1W 6DL 
   1^st Wednesday of the month, 2-4pm 
   
   
2. Kentish Town Library 
   262-266 Kentish Town Rd, London NW5 2AA
   2^nd Wednesday of the month, 2-4pm

4. Highgate Library (Camden)

These sessions are not classes but run more like one-to-one tuition as individual knowledge levels will vary. They're first-come first-served so please be aware some waiting may be required. We recommend coming ready with a single topic in mind, along with paper and a pen to take any notes.
