Over 5
million people in later life have never been on the internet? And there are
many more who struggle to do all the things they would like to online.Well the good news is that Connect <> Lockleaze, working with NBAC's Community Support @ Home project, is looking for suggestions for an event to run as part of the Digital Inclusion Network's ITea and Biscuits week from 16th to 22nd September 2013.
The idea is to encourage people who don't currently use computers, tablets or smartphones to get involved and discover the wide range of the benefits that digital technology can offer!
Here are just a few
ideas of what our session could cover:
- Digital photography
- Researching family history online
- Using Skype and email to keep in touch
- How to send a text on a mobile phone
- Using a search engine
- Demystifying the world wide web
