Practicalities

Each course is free to attend for either staff members or volunteers of Third Sector Organisations based in North East Lincolnshire. Unfortunately these courses are not available to the public or private sector, to organisations based outside North East Lincolnshire or to indviduals not associated with a local third sector organisation or group.

Places are very limited, so early booking is recommended. Bookings need to be received in writing (email or booking form) to be reserved. The course is funded through Common Treasury funding and managed by the Third Sector Hub project to encourage better IT skills and support within our local Third Sector Organisations.

Please only book a place if you are going to be able to attend. We reserve the right to charge a £10 cancellation fee for any bookings cancelled less than 48 hours before the course and a £20 fee will be invoiced for ‘no shows’ on the day of a course.
