The NSW Government is investing $30,000 to better equip and support the important work of the Campbelltown Senior Cyber Seekers.

 

The Campbelltown Senior Cyber Seekers is a computer club for Seniors, with a philosophy of supporting each other through seniors teaching seniors how to navigate an increasingly digital world.

 

Importantly, the club provides regular meetings, training activities and gatherings to encourage an atmosphere of fellowship and enjoyment whilst learning computer and communication skills.

 

The funding, to be delivered as part of the Local Small Commitments Allocation program, will upgrade the club’s old computers and mobile technology to enhance members learning experiences and improve their online connections with friends and family.

 

Greg Warren MP Member for Campbelltown, said “The Campbelltown Senior Cyber Seekers have done, and continue to do a tremendous job of supporting our community and this funding will allow them to keep doing so.”

 

“This fantastic organisation runs three, hour-long classes a day from Monday to Thursday. They are always easy to get in touch with either by phone on 046280484 or by email at [email protected]

 

The Local Small Commitments Allocation Program provides for local communities through $400,000 in benefits to each of the 93 NSW electorates. It will consist of over 600 small community projects, ranging from capital works, services and programs, events, supplies and equipment, charitable donations, playground and park upgrades.
