Switching on digital access across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire

People across East Yorkshire are gaining vital access to technology thanks to a device donation drive by independent broadband provider Quickline.

A total of 30 tablets were donated to Community VISION, serving East Riding of Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire.

Devan Witter from Community VISION said: “These devices will support our Digital Inclusion 4 All project, helping voluntary organisations and communities build digital skills, access essential online services and stay connected. Partnerships like this are vital in reducing digital exclusion and ensuring no one is left behind.”

Rachel Bowerman, Social Value Manager at Quickline, said: “We work with communities across Yorkshire and Lincolnshire to tackle barriers to connectivity. Broadband access is vital, but devices matter just as much. This is a simple step that can have a powerful impact.”

The device donation programme forms part of Quickline’s wider Project Gigabit commitment, helping to tackle digital poverty and ensure rural and underserved communities are not left behind.
