Participate in talks via Zoom

Writer: Hedda Mittner.

With restrictions on physical meetings likely to stay in place for the foreseeable future, many people are missing the interesting talks and presentations offered regularly by Whale Coast Conservation and U3A Overberg.

Both these organisations have therefore decided to make it possible for their members to participate via Zoom.

“You may have read that there are questions around the security of Zoom meetings, but we will take precautions and we won't share any environmental secrets on the platform. Breaches in security arise when the meeting URL link is shared indiscriminately. We will therefore ask you to register for each talk and the meeting link will be sent only to those members who registered,” says Anina Lee of WCC.

“Some of our members may have attended a Zoom meeting with U3A, so you will be familiar with the programme. Those members who would like to do a dummy run to test it, can send an email to anina. wcc@gmail.com with ‘Test run’ in the subject line and I will set up a practice meeting for you.”
