About the project
The Insight into Wales project provides ways to support and develop further opportunities for people with a Learning Disability. By providing access to a private and safe online community, people with a Learning disability can socialise and make new friends across Wales. It will enable people to access a comprehensive range of online activities available 7 days a week with a minimum of 90 online activities provided by over 100 organisations.
Through our Insight into Wales project, people with Learning Disabilities will gain new digital skills, feel less isolated, and have access to a broader social network to improve their health and wellbeing.
Insight into Wales empowers people to access digital resources, share information, join online communities, build new relationships, and feel digitally included and connected. By doing so, we aim to tackle the growing problem of loneliness and isolation following the pandemic.
Project feedback
I started using Innovate Trust's Insight app during the COVID-19 pandemic. It has helped me connect with people all over the UK and get involved in lots of different activities. Because of this project, I am now working for Innovate Trust's Digital Inclusion and Innovations team. I provide awareness to people who can benefit from accessing an online Social community.
