Further information

A small group with dwindling numbers. Our members are predominantly from the education sector, but we also have a nurse, a retired hotelier and a civil servant.

We don't have a set format for meetings, but generally rely on one of our members needing some help (with either hardware or software).

Being in the North of England we don't have many visiting speakers, but last year we did have a very informative visit from David Pilling, who very kindly showed us the benefits of Ovation Pro. One of our members has business connections in Australia: soon he will be returning there, and is planning to meet up with Mal McClenaghan, who proved a useful contact when he was last there. Hopefully he will be able to set up an IRC connection between Australia and Blackpool on his visit.
