People living in the Wells area, struggling to keep up with advances in technology, are being encouraged to continue to keep up-to-date with top tips from local youngsters.

The ‘Technology Hour’ team, who have held a number of successful workshops in Wells, are taking their workshops on the road with the help of the community mini-bus to offer help and advice to those living further afield.

The sessions will take place on Saturday 20 November at the following locations:

• Wells Maltings car park from 10am until 11am
• Blakeney Harbour Room car park from 11.30am until 12.30pm
• Walsingham Village Hall from 1pm until 2pm

The ‘Technology Hour’ event aims to provide people struggling with new technology, such as email accounts, iPod, digital cameras and texting, advice and tips to help with technical problems.

The event is being run as part of Community Action Through Sport (CATS) by the Wells Area Partnership and the Wells Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT).

Local youths will be supported by Ben Francis from the Wells Area Partnership and Police Community Support Officer (PCSO) Becky Taylor, as they offer a helping hand to those in need of technology master class.

PCSO Taylor said: “The workshops have proven to be very successful so far, so the young people were keen take the sessions on the road and offer advice to residents in other areas.

“As with previous sessions, people are encouraged to bring along their phones, cameras and laptops along to the sessions so that they can work through their queries in a face-to-face session with one of our volunteers”

CATS is a project which aims to help young people be proactive in the community.
