People across Stratford-on-Avon District are being challenged to try doing everyday things the digital way, in aid of national 'Get online week'.

Stratford-on-Avon District Council's HQ in Church Street, Stratford-upon-Avon will be playing host all week from 21 to 25 October, allowing people to get online using the computers in main reception.

Help will be on hand to show people how to get online, which could save you time, hassle and even money.  Whether you want to get healthy, get connected, get a job or get a bargain, you could be doing it all – and more – by doing it digitally.

It doesn't matter if you've never even touched a computer before or if you already know at bit – Get online week is a great excuse to experiment with digital technology.

The computers will be available during office hours, with tutors available from 9am throughout the day.

It's fun, it's free and it could change how you do your favourite things and everyday chores forever!  Come along and get digital together!

For more information please contact Councillor Stephen Gray on 01608 662673.
