As secretary of the B&C TRA I am in the process of applying for a grant from
Comic Relief Local Communities Programme
for funds to buy two or three laptops, each with a years mobile internet (and a printer, plus a small projector), so that residents without a computer or internet connection can get online and for those residents who haven't tried it yet to do so - and I know there are quite a few of you.
For those residents with absolutely no experience and especially elderly residents, (assuming we get the grant) I will walk you through "surfing the internet" and sending emails in five minutes - in the community hall or in your own home - it really is that easy - much easier than you think!
Once you are confident, you can book to use the laptop in your own home for as many hours as needed, as often as needed - within reason and depending on demand.
If you are interested please do let me know:

Purpose
The programme aims to empower local people, enabling them to create lasting change in their communities.

You can apply for funding to: increase local services; build skills of local people; increase community cohesion; respond to local economic needs; increase access to sport and exercise for people who face social exclusion and isolation.
