Regular visitors to our website may recall that we posted several months ago about becoming a UK Online centre. What that means is that our ICT facilities are free to use for disabled Trafford residents, parents, and carers during our opening hours (9am to 5pm, Monday to Thursday, 9am to 4:30pm on Friday) and we can also offer free ICT support and access to free online help at certain times (please email: hello@traffordcil.co.uk for more details about this).
As a UK Online centre, our aim is to bring people closer to using the internet both by making our facilities freely available, and also by offering help and support to people. This support runs alongside our ICT classes (please visit our 'Free Classes' page for more on those), and will be provided either by one of our tutors or from a volunteer.
If you are passionate about the internet, have two hours or more to spare a week and would like to help people get online, please get in touch. We'll support you to become a 'Digital Champion' (the free online qualification you need for this role) and will offer you ongoing support and training throughout your time with us. To get in touch, just email: hello@traffordcil.co.uk.
Don't forget to follow us on Twitter - we Tweet most days, posting all the latest CIL information/event invites, and re-Tweeting any important local and national disability news. You can follow us by clicking on the symbol over on the left. You'll need to set up your own Twitter account to become a regular follower, but that's easy to do and, if you struggle for any reason, just email us at: hello@traffordcil.co.uk and we can arrange some free support for you from one of our ICT tutors.
