GoOnLine is a drop-in service which helps older people and carers in rural areas learn how to access the internet with the one-to-one support of volunteers. The service aims to foster use of the internet to pursue peoples’ personal interests.
If you are having problems or lack confidence in using your smart phone, laptop or tablet, or if you need help in making video, conference calls, uploading photos or other IT issues, then we can help. Our friendly GoOnLine service is available to anyone in west Cheshire who is over the age of 60.
