Free Beginning Computing Course
Hey, do you know somebody who wants to learn the basics of computing?
It can be frustrating trying to teach your parents, grandparents, friends and workmates. You show them, but they soon forget it all.
And for them, it's hard to learn. Computers and smartphone are so foreign. And people (like you) teach them too fast!
That's where we can help.
Our free Beginners Computing Course helps people with the basics. We start with how to turn it on. How to use a mouse. How to type. Then, we get into things like email, web browsing, documents, photos and all that.
So, do you know anybody who wants to learn about computers, but lacks a computer to learn on and a patient friend to teach them?
Send them our way! The next course starts on Monday 30 July, and runs from 10 am to midday for 12 weeks.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.7% ... It is complicated

Bid on a special collection of 20 unframed prints by local photographers from an exhibition called Earth Emotions.

Forty-seven photographers responded to an open call, contributing over 100 images. A selection of these was exhibited at the Refinery Art Space.
The photographers have donated 20 exhibition prints to raise funds for the hospice.
