Wednesday 14 October

More and more of everyday life now assumes internet access – and increasingly, a smartphone. Only 1 in 3 UK adults are considered “comfortable online”, 34 million people are online but still face barriers.

Spire Computer Help are running a session called ‘Can’t Get Online, Can’t Get By?’ that looks at who in your life might be struggling to keep up – a partner, neighbour, friend or relative – how you can help them and how you can make your voice heard on digital exclusion locally.

This isn’t a beginners’ session. It’s aimed at people who are already reasonably confident online, and asks them to support others. The talk is followed by refreshments, and an informal table discussion where attendees are invited to share their own experiences, or those of someone they know – stories which may, with permission, help inform local conversations about digital inclusion.

It will run on 14th October, 2.30-3.30pm at St Wilfrid’s Church Hall.
