Digital technology is re-shaping our lives faster than ever before. It helps us in innumerable ways every day, whether that's by showing us the best way to get to the shops, playing our favourite songs on smart speakers or streaming our favourite TV shows as we unwind.

But it is also increasingly forming an ever more life changing role, beyond the habits and leisure tastes of the everyday. Health apps, smart watches and advances in medical technology are helping us stay healthier, fitter and curing us of ailments. Digital is giving us easier access to vital services such as banking and food shopping.
