Together Housing Group and Lloyds Banking Group have set up a joint project to improve the digital literacy of the housing provider’s tenants.
Digital inclusion workers from Pennine Housing, part of Together Housing, and volunteers from Lloyds Banking Group’s marketing team met tenants in December 2016 to talk about technology and how it can help them in day-to-day life.
Joanne Glynn, digital inclusion officer, Together Housing Group, said, “Partnerships with digitally-skilled professionals are one of the most effective tools for helping tenants to understand and address the challenges of digital living.”
Jane Burgin, assistant marketing manager, Lloyds Banking Group, said, “When our team spoke to tenants, it was clear that the priority was to help them understand the basics of how a tablet device works and how they can access the internet safely, so we’re planning a series of training sessions and producing some resources to help them.”
