A TECHNOLOGY bus bringing computer access to the people of Darlington has been launched.
Paralympian athlete Tanni Grey Thompson attended the launch of the BBC vehicle, which has six computers on board and an expert tutor from the town's technology college.
The scheme is available to anyone over 16, but is particularly aimed at elderly people wishing to gain computer skills.
Project manager Tim Ellingford said: "We are getting out to the people who haven't got access to computers and talking to people about the BBC."
The bus will be visiting various locations in the town every Monday.
The next session will take place outside the DSRM Club, in Longfield Road, next Monday.
Anyone wishing to obtain further information can do so by telephoning (01642) 340658.
