About SO:Let's Connect

SO:Let’s Connect is a new project starting in Southampton, with the aim of reducing isolation by enabling people to get connected online.

You can find out more about the project here: SO:Let’s Connect – Digitally Connecting People

Following substantial investment from SO18 Big Local, TWICS, SO:Linked, Drop The Mask Productions CIC, Jamie’s Computers and more, SO:Let’s Connect can provide IT equipment, internet connectivity and support to enable more residents to get online.

Our team of volunteer Digital Connectors are here to provide support – for example teaching people to video chat with their family, access their GP online, take part in online groups and activities and more. They can support even the most tech-anxious people and we can also provide recycled equipment for those who need it.
