They will learn how to use the internet in a safe and easy way and be able to keep in touch with the younger members of their families.

The aim is to ensure that people do not feel so isolated, that they will be able to keep in touch with what is going on round and about even ordering and arranging delivery of their weekly shopping if they are unable to get to a supermarket.

The course is free and will begin with an introductory session on Monday 26th September at The British Legion in Little Common, Bexhill, from 10am to 12.30pm. Equipment will be provided.

Places are allocated on a first come first serve basis and the courses do prove popular so if you are interested call the Sound Architect booking line on 01825 830256.
