Air Products donates funds for new
computer equipment
14th November 2003 — Grandparents at
Hersham Day Centre can now send emails and pictures
to their beloved around the world, thanks to a £2,000
donation by Air Products.
Hersham Day Centre, a social venue for elderly members
of the local community, runs free IT courses for the
most intrepid and innovative of its visitors. Volunteers
teach "grown up students" the basic computer
skills that allow them to surf the internet, send
emails and word processing. "It is so good",
said Mr Pollinger, one of the students. "Now
I can email my grandchildren around the world and
they always send me photos of themselves - they say
I am a cool granddad!"
