Manx public urged to get online

Mon, 17 Oct 2016

Manx residents are being encouraged to use digital technology as part of Get Online Week.

The Isle of Man Government is backing the campaign, which aims to show people how the internet can make life easier, save money and be fun.

A number of businesses and charities will be holding events to encourage the public to get online, including Onchan library, Age Isle of Man and the Chamber of Commerce.

The Government is also urging organisations to sign up to its Digital Inclusion Charter during the week, which is encouraging Islanders to develop digital skills.

Get Online Week begins today, with details of the Isle of Man events available on the Government's website.
