A TELECOMMUNICATIONS giant is urging youngsters to get involved in helping their local community get online.
BT has teamed up with children’s charity The Transformation Trust to run BT Digital Champions, a free initiative for schools which enables students to share their internet skills and help people get online for the first time or improve their existing skills.
During the first year of the programme more than 260 South West students gave at least one hour of their time to help someone in their local community get online.
This year BT Digital Champions aims to help 20,000 people in the UK improve their online skills. Students across the South West and beyond will be competing to get the most people online.
As a reward for completing BT Digital Champions activity, schools will receive free tickets for Rock Assembly 2014, which takes place at Wembley Arena on July 9 2014. To register visit btdigitalchampions.com
