Disability and digital skills
• Digital literacy is essential for education, employment, inclusion
• People with disabilities face additional barriers
• Personalised training and support is a start
• But there are limits to scalability
• People with disabilities naturally look to their peers - and it works!

DigiPlace4all approach to peer support
• A peer is ‘someone like me’
• Peers are equal in ability, standing, rank and value
• Not ‘peer mentoring’ as it suggests hierarchy
• DigiPlace4all peer supporters are untrained, unaccredited and informal
• Facilitates peer support among educators and employers

Peer support requirements – from study
• Manage expectations, prevent dependencies
• Help both parties agree aims, methods and boundaries
• Ensure privacy and protection
• Postings are anonymous, relationships private
• But there are rules and guidance and reporting is encouraged
