COFFEE & COMPUTERS @ Jacksons Lane
Feb 27 @ 10:30 am – 12:30 pm

Need advice about what computer, laptop or tablet to buy?
Still grappling with how to use the one you have already?
Or just fancy coming along and having a play?

COFFEE & COMPUTERS IS FOR YOU

We hold informal one-to-one computer familiarisation sessions over a cup of coffee on the last Friday of the month.

No need to bring anything, just yourself.

“The computer has given me a new life” says 69 year old Coffee & Computers visitor. And the Government has just announced a major new initiative to get everyone over the age of 55 on to the Internet.

So if you are over 55 (or thereabouts) and the very mention of computers bring you out in a cold sweat, call Stuart on 020 8347 2411 or email kirstenhs2012@gmail.com (quoting Coffee & Computers) and give us an idea of what you want to know more about.

Or just come along for the coffee and have a dabble.

You’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without being wired!

We look forward to seeing you

Beginners Vocal Workshop @ Lauderdale House
Apr 12 @ 10:30 am – 2:30 pm

Learn how to develop your singing voice from total scratch

You don’t need to have previous singing experience or be able to read music as this workshop will teach you the singing essentials of breathing techniques and vocal skills in four hours for £25.50.

Kieran and Idit will show you how to transform your speaking voice into a singing voice through practical techniques. Not only will these techniques help improve your singing but also your voice for presentations and public speaking. And that’s not all, for completing the Level 1 workshop you will receive a certificate.

It will be fun and entertaining and to help you we will email the song sheets upon booking so you become familiar with the chosen songs.

Feedback from Elaine who attended our Beginners Workshop in January: I loved the workshop.  I thought it was very well organised.  As a complete beginner, the focus on interactive learning (i.e. theory, practice and feedback) was very helpful.  I came away with a lot more confidence but, rather than just a feeling of increased confidence, I have learnt techniques that could develop my singing voice.”
