Over the last few months, we've been working with Jobcentre Plus to support their work experience initiative by offering individuals placements as volunteer Digital Champions in our centres - and you could get involved too.

The scheme is rolling out regionally throughout the rest of this year and centres who have already taken part have found it's a great way to build a stronger relationship with their local JCP, add extra resource in their centre and bring in fresh experience and new skills from the volunteer taking part.

The volunteers have supported centres in all kinds of ways, from working alongside tutors helping people get online for the first time, helping to promote the centre's services and providing extra help at outreach and campaign events.

If you're interested in taking part and offering a jobseeker experience of working in a UK online centre, please email help@ukonlinecentres.com to get involved.
