Health & digital literacy champions

Become a Health & Digital Literacy Champion

Could you volunteer at your local library and share your digital skills with others?

Essex Libraries is looking for volunteers to help residents gain confidence with accessing NHS services online. Health & Digital Literacy Champions will support residents with downloading and accessing the NHS App, making appointments online, and ordering medicines safely and securely.

To become a Health & Digital Literacy Champion, you'll need to complete a short online training course, before being matched with your local library who will help you plan your support sessions. Sessions would be planned around your commitments and always hosted in a library.

The Champion role is available at libraries across Tendring, Harlow, Basildon and Castle Point. For full details, visit the Volunteer Essex website.
