Forever Connected – Learning about technology 

Lots of people use phones, tablets, and computers every day. They use them to talk to friends, work, shop, watch videos, and play games. But not everyone feels confident using the internet. That’s why our Communities Team is working with a group called Cosmic to help people feel more comfortable using technology. 

We’re running free workshops called Forever Connected. Friendly experts will help you learn how to use phones, tablets, and laptops. 

  • Morning session: 10am to 12pm - Learn new things together in a group. 
  • Afternoon session: Starts at 12:30pm - Bring your own device and get one-to-one help. You’ll leave with useful tips and feel more confident using your phone or tablet. 

You can come to both sessions if you want. If you’re staying all day, bring some lunch! 

No need to book, just come along and join in. 

 We’ll have free tea, coffee, and biscuits for everyone!
