Keith volunteers with FreshwindsIT as an IT trainer, supporting our learners to get online and discover the range of services available over the internet.

“I am enjoying the work with the learners in the Freshwinds IT Training Room. The main reward has been in meeting new people and helping them to acquire new skills. People from a variety of age groups and backgrounds have attended and they all have an interesting tale to tell.

In addition to introducing them to computers a number have been looking for work or they want to use online facilities to pay bills or find information about public services. There are a variety of things that we can discuss or help them with and it is rewarding when they show their appreciation for the service they have received.

I have also enjoyed meeting a number of the staff and other volunteers who work for the organisation. I would recommend other people to volunteer for Freshwinds.”
