Torbay Timebank meeting 3/3/2020

I attended the Torbay Timebank meeting, held at Our Katie's Tea and Coffee house, in Paignton, this morning. I went along mostly to see what was going on, however, I got chatting to people and the need for basic computer skills became clear.

I informed people about Learn My Way and the sessions due to be held in May at Paignton Library. However I then took the initiative to visit the Paignton Library and get some copies of the flyer, to give out at the meeting(s).

I need to get more copies for future meetings as it is clear that there is a need for basic computer courses and r help. Not everyone needs a full course. Not everyone actually wants a computer / tablet, but feels the are going to need one, to use essential services, especially as more and more services are going digital.
