Get help with learning about digital skills and how to get online
Get Online Week is a national event run every year to help people get online for the first time, discover new ways to use the internet, and develop their digital skills. Over 20% of people in the UK still have limited access to the internet or need help using digital services.
These events are open to everyone, regardless of their existing skills or experience. We just want to help you develop your online skills.
Get Online Week events at Knowsley Libraries are happening 14th - 20th October and will be amongst hundreds of events across the UK.
Knowsley Council’s Digital Buddies will be out and about with partners during Get Online week, which takes place from 14 to 20 October 2024.
The week aims to get as many people as possible online during the week. Whether it’s help to manage your money online, learn about online safety or gain basic digital skills for employment, there’s lots of free help and support available in Knowsley to get you connected.

A Digital Roadshow is taking place on Wednesday 16 October 2024 from 1pm until 3pm at Huyton Library.
