Spring Online with Silver Surfers’ Day 2011

"You are never too old to get started with the web"
A NEW NATIONAL CAMPAIGN has started to promote the use of digital technologies among older people.

Spring Online with Silver Surfers' Day takes place on 16th - 20th May 2011. Celebrating ten successful years of Silver Surfers’ Day, this new week-long celebration will provide more opportunity than ever before for people to get involved. 

Silver Surfers’ Day itself will take place on Friday 20 May as a celebratory finale to the week’s activities. 

Anyone who wants to hold a digital taster session during Spring Online week can now register their details at our brand spanking new website, www.springonline.org. Events can be held anywhere, from sitting rooms to boardrooms, classrooms to pubs, communal lounges to libraries. All events will be supported with a marketing toolkit and extensive online resources.

Martha Lane Fox, UK Digital Champion, said: “If everyone in the UK took the time to show an offline family, friend or neighbour the benefits of being online, we'd be very close to enabling millions more people to enjoy life online. You are never too old to get started with the web, and Spring Online and Silver Surfers’ Day is a great chance for new users to find out more about how the internet can make their lives easier, cheaper and much more fun!”
