***Help with Zoom***
In Autumn/Winter 2021 we ran our video conference courses and activities using the system Zoom. The majority of members used it for the first time and were reassured how easy it was to use. However, if you haven't used it yet and the course you want to join is on Zoom, there is still time to acquaint yourself with it. As with anything new, it pays to spend a little time finding out how to use it. Get ready for your first meeting by following these instructions to Join Zoom. You will need to do it some time in advance of the meeting.
