Special Offer! Build Your Own Website Course
LCRN and
Suitcase Media
would like to run a course on building your own website. Suitcase Media
is a new social enterprise that provides IT training to the homeless -
however, they've got the skills to share, and would like to share them
with you! At the moment we are just gauging interest, so please email
jennifer@lcrn.org.uk to let us know. Cost would be about £65 for a one
day session, open to only 8 people, located at their training centre
near London Bridge and Waterloo stations.
Bright Sparks, Bright Future - 1 Year Anniversary
Bright Sparks WEEE repair/reuse/recycling project is about to celebrate
their first birthday - and they're going to pass the savings on to you!
On Tuesday 21 June, their one day sale will see the launch of their new
vintage electricals section - lighting, computer games, kitchen goods,
you name it! Remember, it's better to repair and reuse than to recycle,
and Bright Sparks is here to help you do it.
