We want everyone to feel confident using computers and browsing the internet. There’s a fantastic range of resources online that are free to use, but we know with so much information available it can be hard to navigate.
So to get people feeling good about embracing digital, our partner Cosmic is running eight sessions this autumn, beginning in October, covering all aspects of using online platforms. There’ll also be a health and wellbeing aspect to the sessions run by our partner Spark Somerset, making sure everyone feels happy, comfortable and – ultimately – connected!
Who can take part?
Anyone can take part in these sessions, whether it’s one, two or all eight. You don’t need to be a certain age either but just a willingness to learn something new and have fun.
It’s also a great way to meet other people in the community as halfway through the series Cosmic will be running a virtual pub quiz, inviting everyone to get involved.
What will be covered?
- Online communication – 21 October
- Health and wellbeing – 28 October
- CV writing with Inspired to Achieve – 4 November
- Digital knowledge pub quiz – 11 November
- Staying safe online – 18 November
- Community Connector workshop – 25 November
- Facebook – 2 December

The sessions will be run by friendly, thoughtful experts and are open to all. Cosmic have also got a treat for one participant! Anyone attending six of the eight sessions will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win an Amazon Echo Dot.
