On 5th February we held an IT taster day for 12 visually impaired people which was delivered by The British Computer Association for the Blind. The BCABs EyeT4All project was funded by the Big Lottery Fund and will be running for the next few years.
The day was very much enjoyed and appreciated. One attendee said, “it was a great opportunity to see what computer support is available for someone like me” others commented on how much they enjoyed learning something new and meeting other people like themselves.
This day was again part of the consultation process we are currently undertaking. We used the day to speak to people about the future of NRSBs computer training and support services and are already beginning to see a pathway forward.
We do plan to have the BCAB back again to deliver more IT training days, not only in Nottingham city but also across the County. Please contact Natalie if you are interested in taking part.
