 Good afternoon, We will be running our popular IT Help Clinic sessions via Zoom on Saturdays for the next few months, during the current restrictions due to the coronavirus pandemic. Sessions will be hosted by our volunteer Sam, who now works for Microsoft so has a wealth of hardware knowledge. If you have any queries regarding smartphones, PCs, tablets or any other issues, please send your e-mail address to [email protected] to get an invitation to the sesssions. It would also make things easier for Sam, if you have a specific question, to send the question in early, so he can research it in time for the session. We hope to see you on Saturday.

COMPUTER HEALTH CLINIC- SATURDAYS AT THE CRANBROOK CENTRE
| Start Date: | 1st February, 2020 |
| End Date: | 1st February, 2020 |
| Description: |
Did you know there are ways to minimise chances of losing data on your computer? Are you wondering why your computer is so slow? But you don't want to spend thousands of ££££ on a new one? We have a solution. A regular health check will avoid nasty problems later on.Here is a typical case study. A member came to seek help from our IT section as he was having difficulty accessing the information from his laptop. After a close inspection, our IT expert found over 200 errors on the data storage making it very difficult or impossible to access data from those files. This kind of problem can take days to resolve even if the information can be recovered. At the end, our professional computer expert successfully recovered the data for this member. A visit to our 'Computer Clinic' on a Saturday morning between 11 and 2 pm for a Health Check would have reduced chances of this happening, and reduced time spent on rescuing important data. A donation of £30 was made for the health check and an additional £60 for data recovery. A comparison of high street stores revealed costs of £60 for a Health check and £90 for data recovery. |
QUEENS' AWARD FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE - ASSESSMENT PROCESS, 29/11/2019
| Start Date: | 29th November, 2019 |
| End Date: | 29th November, 2019 |
| Description: |
Good morning Our Charity has been nominated for the Queen’s Award for Voluntary Service in the current round that ends with an announcement on June 4th 2020. This does not mean we have the award but have to go through an assessment process. We shall hear whether we have been awarded the QAVS in May 2020. There are 28 other groups who have been nominated in the area. This prestigious award, known as the ‘MBE for voluntary groups’, is only given after a detailed nomination form has been submitted, which has been done and accepted as 'eligible.' We now have to go through the assessment process. Avril McIntyre MBE DL will take us through the assessment process which will be on FRIDAY 29th November from 11.30 am to 2.30 approximately, at The Cranbrook Centre, Valentines Park, Melbourne Road, Ilford, IG1 4SB Avril wants to meet as many people as possible who are or were involved with the charity and anyone who has benefited from its work. Our assessor - Avril McIntyre MBE DL is the Queen's representative for Barking and Dagenham. She will also contact for information and comments on our activities, other sources such as the Representative Deputy Lieutenant for our borough, community leaders, local authorities, health providers and the Police. We cannot be assessed by our own DL as the process must be impartial. You all know our Queen's representative in Redbridge from our AGM this year; Thomas Chan DL who attended with his wife Sim. Avril McIntyre's work results in an assessment report to her Committee, sitting ‘in college’ in early January 2020, from where she advises the Lord-Lieutenant. He decides which groups are to go forward as ‘Recommended’ to the main QAVS Committee, and its specialist sub-committees for their examination of the evidence and final decisions. The content of the Lord-Lieutenant’s assessment report and his recommendations are private and confidential, and, after his assessment, we will only hear whether we have been awarded the QAVS, or not, after the whole process is completed in May 2020. From the above, you will see how seriously the process of assessing and selecting those who are to be awarded QAVS is taken and how much it is to be valued. We hope you will support us on Friday 29th for this important event in our Charity. Refreshments will be provided as usual. Children are welcome provided they are accompanied by a parent or grandparent! Best wishes The ASNet team |

| End Date: | 6th April, 2019 |
| Description: |
 KATHAKALI We shall be holding three days of workshops based on this ancient art form led by Vijay and Barbara Vijayakumar. KATHA [meaning story] KALI [meaning play] evolved from earlier temple art forms in the 17th century. It is based on Hinduism, is a highly charged powerful drama that combines devotion, drama, dance, music, costumes and make up to produce one of the most impressive forms of sacred theatre in the world. Kathakali is ancient and classical in nature holding centuries of tradition and culture. It is not simply a dance-drama but an act of devotion featuring the universal struggle between good and evil. The Hindu epic stories in India were often told through a language the local people could understand – theatre. The stories were passed from one generation to the next as they were performed in the heart of their rural communities. This will be a unique opportunity to handle and restore ancient costumes and find out from Barbara how the three dimensional make up known as chutti is applied. Dates Saturday 6th April 11 to 1pm, lunch break, 1.30 to 3 pm A comparative study of Kathakali and Bharathanatyam costumes and the way they move. |

Are you wondering why your computer is so slow? But you don't want to spend thousands of ££££ on a new one? We have a solution. A regular health check will avoid nasty problems later on. A member came to seek help from our IT section as he was having difficulty accessing the information from his laptop. After a close inspection, our IT expert found over 200 errors on the data storage making it very difficult or impossible to access data from those files. This kind of problem can take days to resolve even if the information can be recovered. At the end, our professional computer expert successfully recovered the data for this member. A visit to our 'Computer Clinic' on a Saturday morning between 11 and 2 pm for a Health Check would have reduced chances of this happening and spending time on rescuing important data. A donation of £30 was made for the health check and an additional £60 for data recovery. A comparison of high street stores revealed costs of £60 for a Health check and £90 for data recovery. |

COMPUTER HEALTH CLINIC
| Start Date: | 9th February, 2019 |
| End Date: | 9th February, 2019 |

Did you know there are ways to minimise chances of losing data on your computer?
Here is a typical case study.
Are you wondering why your computer is so slow? But you don't want to spend thousands of ££££ on a new one? We have a solution. A regular health check will avoid nasty problems later on. A member came to seek help from our IT section as he was having difficulty accessing the information from his laptop. After a close inspection, our IT expert found over 200 errors on the data storage making it very difficult or impossible to access data from those files. This kind of problem can take days to resolve even if the information can be recovered. At the end, our professional computer expert successfully recovered the data for this member. A visit to our 'Computer Clinic' on a Saturday morning between 11 and 2 pm for a Health Check would have reduced chances of this happening and spending time on rescuing important data. A donation of £30 was made for the health check and an additional £60 for data recovery. A comparison of high street stores revealed costs of £60 for a Health check and £90 for data recovery. |
