St Sampsons Digital Cafe
Our Digital Cafes are popping up across the city of York, providing a space for York residents to get dedicated support in getting online.
Hosted in a 2 hour session, residents can come down for a warm drink and to ask any questions (and bring along any devices).
Our volunteers are here to help you get online, from setting up a smart phone to signing up to the NHS app or York Council website.
No bookings are required and you can stick around for a few minutes, or a few hours, everyone is welcome at the Keeping Digital Foundation Digital Cafes.

Our Digital Cafes are a space for York residents to get dedicated support in getting online, from accessing Council services or setting up a mobile phone! Bring along any devices, any questions and our volunteers are here for a cuppa and a chat.
No need to book, just pop down and we'll see you there!

Databank support available at this Digital Cafe
The York Databank distributes free SIMs and mobile data to eligible residents, ensuring residents aren't cut off from the basic daily activities most people in our country take for granted. No-one should be left behind. Residents can find out if they are eligible and speak to a volunteer at a Digital Cafe to get started.
