Digital technology will be crucial in the coming months to help people stay connected, find reliable information, shop for necessities and stay healthy. Digital Communities Wales is here to support people to get online.
Thankfully, for many people, digital technology means they will be able to socialise online, shop for groceries, find health information and access resources and activities to keep them occupied during the COVID-19 outbreak.
