Digital Lifeline


Digital Lifeline was an emergency response project in response to the Covid 19 pandemic getting devices, data and digital skills support to digitally excluded people with learning disabilities in England.

It was funded by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) and delivered through the Good Things Foundation. Hft was a Community Partner in the project, successfully providing over 100 tablet devices to people supported by Hft.  We completed assessments for each person, set the devices up to meet the person’s specific needs and facilitated remote training sessions to help people get online and connected.
