Digital Switchover events coming soon

West Sussex County Council Libraries, in partnership with Neighbourhood Watch and BT Group, are hosting drop-in events to help residents understand the Digital Switchover. By 2027, all telephone providers will switch from analogue landlines to fibre, which may affect telecare devices and landline use during power cuts. Volunteers and experts will be available to explain the changes and offer advice on online safety.

Drop-in sessions will run from October to November in various libraries. No booking is required, so feel free to attend and learn how to stay informed and connected.
