Scores of people will be able to take their first steps on the Internet during a special event in Burnham-On-Sea this Friday (October 19th).
Burnham’s BAY Centre in Cassis Close is one of hundreds of UKonline locations across the UK taking part in an initiative to promote Internet use.
The centre’s expert volunteers will be on hand from 10am-3.30pm to help visitors.
Spokesman Mike Lang told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “No appointments are necessary, so just pop in for your first Internet experience. The BAY Centre is a designated UK Online centre so whether you want email, internet shopping, or just want to keep up with news online, our team of volunteers are here to help.”
While Burnham’s main library is closed during October, members of the public are also reminded that there is a public access computer available for daytime free use in the entrance lobby of the Burnham Area Youth Centre in Cassis Close. Whilst the centre is not always open, users are requested to be sympathetic to scheduled groups using the building.
