Hide AdLeanne Townend, Yorkshire Building Society’s assistant branch manager, said: “We’re holding this Digital Focus Day to help our members become more confident about using online or app-based banking to manage their accounts with us.
“We know that some people struggle with using the web, so we are hoping that these free face-to-face sessions will help people build confidence to be able to use online sources to help complement our in-branch services.
“It’s a great opportunity to be shown how to set up online accounts easily and safely and talk through any worries or concerns that people might have when it comes to managing money online.”
Yorkshire Building Society is committed to closing the digital skills gap in its communities through various partnerships. Between 2021 and August 2023 a “digital buddies” partnership between the society and Age UK helped more than 1,400 older people get online.
