ONSIDE 'Connection' sessions

Online learning post-project

The ONSIDE project concluded at the end of November 2022.  However, you can still use the ONSIDE online resources including the Community Hub and the ‘How to videos’ on our ONSIDE YouTube channel.

The ONSIDE team wished for our participants to continue developing and utilising their digital skills to create community connections post-project. To support this we facilitated an ‘ONSIDE Connection’ series for our  participants. This series involved inviting an organisation or topic expert to present to our participants via Zoom.

We covered a range of topics that informed, inspired and empowered participants from independent living, to minding mental health to staying safe online. Previous participants included: The Consumer Council, Ulster Bank, Aware NI, Libraries NI, My Way Access, Centre for Independent Living, Men’s Health Forum and Chair Yoga.
