I've been sent some info about some "techy tea parties" and there's one happening in North Bristol at the EE head offices in Bradley Stoke. It might be a bit like being taught to suck eggs for all of you, as you are all online already, but it's a free session all about things techie:
"EE’s digital champions will help you understand how easy it is to get online and all the benefits of being connected, like learning how to Tweet, saving money by paying bills online, or keeping in touch with family and friends. And there’ll be tea and biscuits of course. This programme is part of the company’s wider corporate responsibility initiatives and employee volunteering activity, this is not related to sales or marketing."
So it does involve free tea and biscuits and lasts for about an hour and a half. The "EE digital champion" is there to answer questions and help build people's confidence in using the internet and new technology. You can take along your own mobiles, laptops, tablets etc but they will also have kit there to show everyone.
If you are interested then contact Richard Gaskin at TimeBank, [email protected] or call 020 3111 0728.
It might be a chance to find out more about how to edit photos and things like that too - worth asking when you ring to book a place.
