We are looking for volunteers to assist in delivering this Programme, supporting those who are digitally excluded to get online and enhance their digital skills. DHSS particularly focuses on helping people use health apps, with the goal of enabling easier and more convenient access to services at GP surgeries, without the need for phone calls or visits to the practice, and empowering individuals to manage their health conditions more independently.

As a Digital Health Champion volunteer, you will work with people in your community to help them develop their digital skills, showing them how to use online services to improve their day-to-day activities and overall health and wellbeing. Your responsibilities may include:

• Helping clients download and register for the NHS app or any associated GP apps
• Demonstrating to clients processes such as ordering repeat prescriptions and setting up proxy access.
• Supporting clients with booking appointments.
• Helping clients access their medical records and test results.

You may work with clients in a community venue, at a GP surgery, or in their own homes, depending on their needs and your preferences.
