'How To' Tech Support Day

Bring Your Basic Tech Questions & We'll Support You!

Date: Wednesday 9th of September
Time: 10:30am - 2:30pm
Cost: FREE

As part of our Be Connected Program The Place is hosting a FREE 'How To' Tech Support Day for people over 50. Our friendly Digital Mentors will be providing one-on-one support sessions to community members needing assistance with their digital devices.

If you have a specific 'How To' question we are here to help! Time slots will be between 30 and 45 minutes and will be booked in once we have attendees registered. We will contact you to offer an appointment time in order of registration (first come first serve) so get in quickly!

Keeping everyone’s health in mind we will have multiple well-spaced stations set up throughout a large spacious room and are offering assigned time slots with time between for thorough cleaning.

Please keep in mind we are everyday Digital Mentors and not computer technicians; we can help with basic tech questions but are unable to help with complex or hardware issues.

Bookings are essential as we have limited appointments available. Please phone 02 4032 5500 or email programs@theplacecharlestown.org.au with your:
• Name, contact number and email (if possible)
• Device (Samsung Galaxy Tab A, iPad, Windows Laptop, iPhone, Huawei Smartphone, etc.)
• Question or issue – as detailed as possible so we can gather relevant information
• Anything else you feel is essential

We look forward to supporting you!

Call us on 4032 5500 or email programs@theplacecharlestown.org.au to book your appointment today!
