Free roadshows for Liverpool City Region residents to boost digital confidence

Wednesday, 21 January 2026

Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, in partnership with the six local authorities, is hosting a series of FREE marketplace roadshow events designed to help residents build digital confidence, access resources, and discover further support through the Login LCR project. 

Being online is now an essential part of everyday life - whether it’s booking appointments, paying bills, or applying for jobs. 

There are also a number of NHS services you can access online, such as contacting your GP, ordering repeat prescriptions and viewing your medical records.

Yet across Liverpool City Region, an estimated 125,000 people remain offline. To tackle this digital divide, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, alongside its partners, is committed to empowering residents with the skills and confidence they need to thrive in a digital world. 

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to improve your digital know-how, join us at one of eight free roadshow events taking place across the region from January to March 2026. 

What are the roadshows? 

These large-scale, FREE marketplace events will run in each Liverpool City Region area between 26 January and 21 March 2026. 

At the roadshows, you’ll have the chance to connect with organisations from the Liverpool City Region Digital Inclusion Network, including local authorities, support organisations, NHS Digital, internet providers, and more. 

What support will be available? 

Our marketplace roadshows offer practical help and resources, including: 

  • Building digital confidence 
  • Guidance on using online services 
  • Information on council digital services 
  • Take-home resources, such as the Helping You Online Guide 
  • Tips for staying safe online 
  • Advice on affordable broadband options, including Social Tariffs 
  • Community signposting to local digital hubs, libraries, and support groups 

Who is the audience?

Residents across LCR who are seeking digital support - at varying levels of digital confidence. 

When and where? 

There’s no need to book - just drop in. Bring your tablet, mobile phone, laptop, and any questions you have.
