Never too old to learn something new


A 72 year old lady attended one of our basic IT courses recently – when asked why, she said “I wanted to try something new and to stop getting bored, and maybe to meet others too.”

At the end of the course she said “Well, it was my first time I’d ever used this computer, I didn’t even know how to switch it on! I left work at 25, so after more than 40 years, I haven’t even used a typewriter since…I like using emails, I have people abroad who I can contact. I’ve done some competitions too! I like to stay in touch with people, that’s important to me.”
