What does the role involve?

Providing support with laptops, desktop PCs, tablets, smart phones or cameras; supporting people to learn the basics of computing, plus basic tasks such as email, social networking, Skype, online shopping, catch up TV etc

What you will get out of it

• It's a great way to make a difference to a local charity that supports older people
• You get to be part of Age UK Barnet's volunteer team
• It's a great way to make a real difference to someone's life
• You'll be giving something to your community
• Volunteers tell us they find it really rewarding

What is expected of me?
