Building confidence with everyday technology.

CyberSprouts helps older adults, vulnerable individuals and others who may need extra support to use technology more safely, confidently and independently.

Everyday Digital Confidence

Practical support with the technology people use every day, helping individuals understand common digital tasks, recognise potential risks and make safer decisions online.

Safe and Secure Online Participation

Guidance can cover account security, passwords, multi-factor authentication, online shopping, banking, messaging, social media and recognising scams or suspicious activity.

Support for Changing Digital Needs

Digital needs can change over time. Support can be adapted as new devices, services and technologies become part of everyday life, or when additional help is needed to maintain safe and confident use.

Maintaining Independence

The aim is to help people remain connected and in control of their own digital lives, while putting sensible safeguards in place where additional support may be beneficial.

A practical, supportive approach

Every individual is different. Guidance is designed to be clear, proportionate and easy to maintain, with the focus on building confidence rather than creating unnecessary restrictions or dependence.

The goal is simple: safer online participation, greater confidence and continued digital independence.
