AN opportunity to learn how to 'get online' is being offered by a housing group.

As part of Get Online Week 2015, Herefordshire Housing is offering free computer and internet courses, available from 9am to 5pm between Monday October 12 and Friday October 16.

The team will also be running ancestry taster sessions between 10am and 2pm during the week for those who would like to learn how to research their family trees.

Everyone is welcome and those taking part will be entered into a competition to win a tablet computer.

The drop in sessions will take place at the Learning Box, a new learning centre, at Brierley Court. It is near to the city's fire station and parking is available.
