Earlier this month (Wednesday 6th June 2018), Winchester’s retired residents were once again invited to come along to our TechFest65 event; where attendees were taught how to grips with their smartphones, tablets and laptops by the Everycare and Vodafone teams.
The event, which took place at the United Church on Jewry Street, proved a great success! Attendees at this month’s event were encouraged to bring along their own devices and quiz the experts from Everycare and Vodafone about how to make the most of them; whilst also enjoying tea, coffee, cake and good company.
Attendee Hazel from Winchester commented on the event: “The event was very informative – need more!”, whilst another added: “Very good day – helpful, relaxed and altogether easy. Look forward to the next time. Can see how people have improved from being here at all three meetings. Well done.”
Since the first technology workshop was launched in October 2017 in an effort to help the over-65 population of Winchester become more confident and connected with new technology, TechFest65 has welcomed 100s of Winchester’s over-65s. We’re already in the stage of planning our next event, so keep your eyes peeled on our Facebook and Twitter page for further announcements!
