Support Northamptonshire in partnership with Café Track, VR Therapies and Digital Northants presents Bridging the Digital Divide.

The Covid-19 pandemic has emphasised how technology will enable new ways of working and will revolutionise traditional thinking about working practices. The demands on the social services sector will be higher than ever and technology-based solutions will be key to the delivery of efficient, timely and successful services for those in need.

'Bridging the Digital Divide' demonstrates 3 very different ways that organisations have used digital technology to address an identified issue and the resulting impact and positive outcomes for people.

• Support Northamptonshire shows how digital technology can enable collaborative case management and wellbeing outcomes for vulnerable people.

• Café Track discusses how they are using digital technology to help create employment opportunities for autistic people.

• VR Therapies demonstrate how virtual reality has been used to transform the lives of people with mental health issues and physical disabilities.

This event looks to inspire delegates to further their own digital strategies and their use of digital technology to provide better outcomes for the people and groups they support.
