Vista's Digital Dynamos Service receives funding from The National Lottery Community Fund

We are delighted to announce that thanks to 2 years funding from The National Lottery Community Fund that our Digital Dynamos (previously Digital Vision) project commenced in November.

This service allows us to offer impartial information about available technology, choosing suitable tech and then support with learning how to use tech effectively. Digital Dynamos provide one to one, online groups and, face to face group support in your local area (when safe to do so).

A “Try before you Buy” loan service of phones and tablets and smart speakers for an agreed period is also available, subject to agreeing to basic terms and conditions.

We also are introducing a “Gift a Phone Scheme”, for anyone to gift a smart phone, for redistribution to less fortunate people with sight loss to address Digital and Social Isolation.

If you would like any further information, would like to seek assistance or advice then contact the Digital Dynamo team on 0116 249 8840. Or, if you would like to become a Digital Dynamos volunteer, please contact Ian, our Digital Dynamos Project Officer at ian.watts@vistablind.org.uk.
