Get In Touch with Computer Training
in the villages

The National UK Online Centres Award winner 2008

So far this year Yarn Barton award winning tutors have visited several villages with the above outreach project – Halstock, Mosterton, Broadwindsor and Toller, with classes taking place in village halls, pubs and clubs. Due to the popularity of these taster sessions,  UK Online will be funding us to enable the project to continue.

Would you like us to visit your village or Club?

Classes will continue with four weekly sessions to learn the basics of using a mouse, the keyboard and some word processing, along with the opportunity to have a look at the internet and emailing. At the end of this first four 2-hr sessions, transport will be available for you to continue your training at the Yarn Barton Centre for a further four weeks, with full access to the internet. You will set up your own email address; we will help you to explore various web sites such as West Dorset District Council, Dorset County Council, the Dorset County Hospital, National Health Direct and in addition any sites of particular interest to you.

Because of the funding raised for this project, the cost for the course will be just £3.00 per week, which will cover all costs and will include refreshments too.

Look out for further information in other local publications and posters that will be distributed throughout the community. In the meantime if you would like more information, or for your village to be included, give us a call at the Yarn Barton Centre on 01308 863047. Come and join us and stay In Touch with your family, friends and your future
