New Printer for Laptop Heaven

A presentation was made today by Sue Reedman, Chair of the Machars Area Partnership, to members of “Laptop Heaven”. Machars Area Partnership is a voluntary group made up of community volunteers, voluntary and statutory organisations. They assist with volunteer led projects in the area as well as supporting the work of Building Healthy Communities. The “Laptop Heaven” group was set up 3 years ago and is run in partnership by Riverside Centre and Building Healthy Communities. The aim of the group is to assist members of the Day Centre to understand modern technology and solve any issues that may arise with their laptops, computers and tablets. The addition of a wireless printer will allow all members to experiment with printing documents and photographs with guidance from  Luke, the tutor, before printing items at home. People who would like to join the group would need to be members of the Riverside Centre which provides excellent facilities for its members throughout the week. The Laptop Heaven group is funded by Building Healthy Communities as part of their Self Management Programme.
