Computer training courses

Concerned that many of us were missing out, we are working with a network of community projects (known as the Digital Inclusion Network) which specialise in computer and internet training for older people.

The projects give straightforward training using jargon-free terms and aim to get as many of you as possible enjoying the advantages of computers and the internet.

To find out about computer training schemes in your area, contact the project nearest to you.
