Welcome to my new website

Many of us over 60 are counted out when part-time jobs come up despite our collective wisdom and abilities.

To counter some of this prejudice I have dispensed with sending my CV and have instead created The Complete Picture, an animated ninety second overview of my life to date @ https://vimeo.com/223960456.

21 Oct 2010
A Digital Week for the Nation
www.ukonlinecentrescom

I tried very hard between 1997-2006 to persuade several government departments including Education and the DTI, and then Ofcom (after 2003) and the BBC to come together to create a Digital Day for the Nation.

Then one day Helen Milner, CEO of UK Online Centres in Sheffield, dropped in for a chat and I mentioned it to her and she said immediately: "We can do that" and she did. We launched it in October, 2007 and now finally it has "legs".

The main problem with DfES and the DTI was that as it wasn't their idea they wouldn't fund it, ditto Ofcom and the Beeb. Why do organisations behave like this?

Anyway good old UK Online and this year it is supported by www.RaceonLine2012.org . Yo.
