About NetSavvy
In an age where we're overwhelmed with information and growing cyber threats, knowing what to believe and keeping yourself and those you love safe and secure online may seem overwhelming. But at NetSavvy we equip the everyday internet user with the knowledge and skills to do exactly that – no tech background required. We host a variety of digital literacy, and online safety, security and privacy workshops and talks, helping you to spot false information, and become scam-savvy and hard to hack.
We have learnt that there are excellent tools and techniques freely available to the average internet user that don't require you to be an IT boffin and are relatively easy to use. Our aim is to empower all internet users with simple, effective digital literacy and online safety tools and techniques.
At NetSavvy, we want to make digital literacy and online safety accessible to everyone, regardless of technical background.
We believe that by empowering internet users of all ages with the right skills and information to responsibly navigate the digital world, we can create a safer online community and information integrity for all.
