Hello everyone!
My site is: http://members.thewebonwheels.com.au
My member's site is for people (usually older people) who are non-confident computer users. Usually they're scared they'll do something wrong, they really can't remember what to do after someone tells them everything in 2 minutes and they need a lot of hand-holding.
That's what I love to do - encourage them to continue to be brave and bit by bit they build their skills and their confidence.
I am really keen on these people learning technology, including their scary computer so they can keep in touch with friends and family, stave off social isolation, keep their self-esteem intact, by doing things themselves, even when their bodies become frail.
So if you know of any family friends etc who need some support with their computer - please let them/me know!
And if you've got any feedback on the site I'd love to know. If there's something that should be fixed or could be better, if I know about it, I can fix it and it will help my members!
Thanks for reading and I hope you visit!
All the best
