Story

SHARE have launched a campaign to raise £10,000 to set up and run a cyber cafe at the hub (our outreach centre).

Homeless individuals who want to reintegrate into the workforce or wider society face a huge barrier due to a lack of basic technology or digital skills.

Studies have shown that within the homeless population there is a lack of effective education that builds confidence and skills, as well as barriers for entry within public spaces that provide Internet access.

There are 4.3 million people (8%) in the UK with zero Basic Digital Skills

16% (8.6 million) of the UK are not able to fill out an online application form

18% of the UK adults claiming benefits (1.2 million people) have low or no digital capability at all
