This event will help to build your confidence using technology and online tools and provide you with access to a wealth of information via the Be Connected website.

Our Lunch & Learn events are accessible, inclusive and open to the community; carers and support workers are welcome and there will be Auslan interpreters attending all our Lunch & learn events.

We will enjoy a lovely light lunch together and refreshments, tea and coffee will be provided. If you have a device you're welcome to bring it along on the day, however it's not essential. Please just bring writing material so you can take notes.

The Place is proud to be the first community organisation in NSW to take part in the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program, supporting more people in our community get connected and build confidence online. Through the program, we helped allocate 30 refurbished laptops to local people in our community, including seniors, carers, people with disability and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Participants receive 12 months of free data, digital skills training and IT Support to help them make the most of their device. Delivered by NSW Telco Authority in partnership with WorkVentures and Good Things Australia, the NSW Device Bank Pilot Program is part of the NSW Government’s Digital Inclusion Strategy. The program helps bridge the digital divide by giving people access to the essential technology, connectivity and support needed in today’s digital world. We’re incredibly grateful for this opportunity for our local community and want to thank everyone who made it possible.
