Digital Skills Drop-ins

The YMCA Glenrothes runs a series of community digital support sessions in Glenrothes, Leven, and Kirkcaldy thanks to funding from Fife Council and the Corra Foundation.

The YMCA Glenrothes leads on Connect Fife. In partnership with Frontline Fife, Kingdom Support and Care and Trust in Fife, we aim to tackle repeat homelessness through digital engagement. This one year trial will create a common framework that can be replicated across Fife.

Open to all, the YMCA Glenrothes digital support sessions provide free and impartial support to help you feel confident using your device, whether you are experiencing homelessness or not.

Please see below the sessions we currently have up and running, and check back to see new sessions being added in early 2023.
