The amazing Dame Sheila Hancock, celebrated actor and author, is a strong advocate for education and a very hands-on Patron of DigiSmart.

Sheila’s involvement includes visiting schools to meet children using the DigiSmart resources and encouraging their learning. She is passionate about children achieving their full potential and her rapport with them is extraordinary.

“I strongly believe in the power of the word and the imagination. No child should leave primary school without good literacy skills. DigiSmart is addressing this in a rigorous and fun way, fusing traditional learning with children’s love of computers. I’ve seen how engaged children are with my own eyes and am very excited to be involved.”
