Age Concern Launches Digital Inclusion NetworkThis week, 17-23 May is Adult Learners Week and as part of that event, tomorrow sees the return of Silver Surfers Day

If you’re over 50 and reading this, chances are that you already know how to surf the Web. But if you happen to know someone who needs some help, you might want to point them in the direction of one of the courses we found taking place tomorrow on the Wight.

Newport
Coolspot at the Isle of Wight College in Newport have been running courses all week as part of Adult Learners Week, and tomorrow between 10-3pm you can book a session with an experienced Tutor to explore the Web and find out how to make the most of the Internet.

Contact Simon on 535204 for more info. It won’t cost you a penny.

    I hope you’ll allow me to add to this report on Adult Learners’ Week that the Esperanto Association of Britain offers a free Esperanto postal course. Suitable for those who would like a quick taster, this course gives an overview of the language in twelve bite-sized portions. Once you have received the first lesson, simply return your answers with an SAE. Your tutor will reply with guidance and the next lesson. All you pay is postage! Tel: 0845 230 1887 or write to:
    Esperanto Education
    Esperanto House
    Station Road
