North Bristol Advice Centre (NBAC)’s popular digital outreach service continues with new locations across north Bristol from February 2025.
Bristol Tea and Tech drop-ins are held in community spaces across north Bristol and offer support to older people to develop digital skills and confidence to get connected, and do what matters to them online.
The team will be returning to Henleaze and Avonmouth to continue fortnightly sessions. In Henbury and Patchway, we will be trialling group learning sessions, where we focus on particular tasks. In addition, a new six-week drop-in will take place in Westbury-on-Trym at the Westbury-on-Trym Methodist Church. NBAC’s weekly digital drop-in in Lockleaze continues to run every Tuesday morning, from 10:30am to 12.30pm.
The sessions are suitable for beginners, and those with experience who want to update their skills. Volunteers will be on hand to help people to get online and address concerns about safety and security. People can bring their own smartphone, tablet, or laptop, or use one of ours. The service is free –and includes a cuppa and a chat. Bristol Tea and Tech is funded by St Monica Trust’s Digital Inclusion Fund.
