On Tuesday 11th September ACE IT held an information day at BT's headquarters at Alexander Graham Bell House at the invitation of the Age And Disability Action team of BT.

The staff were asked to bring along their parents and any older members of the family who might be interested in learning about computers and the internet.

ACE IT staff, volunteers and the Edinburgh Silver Surfers were on hand to give advice and were based in the café area where those interested were able to stop by for a chat and to learn more about what we do.

The event was part of the annual Silver Surfers Festival week hosted nationally by Age Concern and supported by BT. A number of people gave their names to be added to the ACE IT waiting list for their ten week training course on basic computing and use of the internet.

The day was a great success and getting out and about in the community is something we all enjoy.

 

Our thanks to Kenny Arthur and the Age And Disability Action team of BT for the lovely day out and an excellent lunch, morning coffee which was much appreciated.

ACE IT & BT's Age And Disability Action team would like to thank all who took part!
