Although we like to keep things simple and enjoyable we have a duty of care to ensure the people we help are safe. With this in mind you will need to complete a brief interview and CRB check, which can take up to 6 weeks. You will then receive training if required and shadow a member of the team before taking ownership of sessions alone but with the support of the team. On some occasions we will all be together encouraging people in the borough to get online at various events both organised by ourselves and others. We would be delighted if you wanted to join us in making the project a huge success and ensuring people in Caerphilly are not leO behind but are able to enjoy and reap the benefits of gePng online.
