Need Help Getting Online? The Digital Help Finder Tool Can Point You in the Right Direction
Getting online can make life easier—whether it’s booking appointments, applying for jobs, or staying in touch with friends and family. But not everyone knows where to go for help.
That's why Salford City Council created the Digital Help Finder Tool.
It’s a free, easy-to-use tool that helps you find local support for things like:
- Learning basic digital skills
- Getting access to devices, free mobile data or Wi-Fi
- Finding friendly places to get help in person
How It Works
Just answer a few quick questions and the tool will show you nearby services that match what you need.
It’s designed for:
- Residents who want help for themselves or someone they know
- Community groups supporting others
- Frontline staff like library workers or council teams
Why It's Useful
⏰Saves time: Staff say it saves over 26 hours a week compared to searching manually.
😖Reduces stress: It’s helped staff feel less overwhelmed when trying to find the right support.
🏛️Built by Salford: Over 80 local organisations helped shape it, so it’s made with the community in mind.
