Don’t qualify for a grant?
If you don’t think you qualify for a
Home Access Grant, you might want to
think about buying a
Home Access package for yourself.
There are also lots of places you can
access the internet in your local
community, sometimes for a small fee
or even for free. Ask at your local library, community centre or get in touch with UK online centres
for free on 0800 77 1234 or at www.ukonlinecentres.com
Look for the logo
You can now buy Home Access packages in local stores, on the
internet, over the phone and wherever you see this logo.
The logo also means that the staff will be able to help and advise
you when you’re having a look or buying your package.
How it can help your family
Carshalton Boys has a MLE – a Managed Learning Environment.
This allows students to access learning materials, take part in
online forums, collect and submit work, get homework help and
help them to set themselves targets to improve their capability in
their subjects.
With a computer and the internet at home, you can learn what
you want, when you want, whatever your age.
Home Access is about getting the whole family to:
• use the internet to find out about things that matter to you
• learn new skills while you’re exploring.
Get information 24/7
From bus timetables, benefits or what’s on tonight’s TV… find it all on the internet.
Save yourself time
Visit NHS Choices, Jobcentre Online or DirectGov… all much quicker and greener than going into
town.
Improve your skills
See this as a great chance to develop your IT skills… most jobs need these now.
Save yourself money
Internet-only offers, money-off coupons, cheaper gas and electricity deals… online savings all add
up.
