Broadband for Seniors (BFS) is for older Australians who have a thirst for knowledge but are being held back because they don’t know how to use a computer, tablet, smartphone or the Internet.
Broadband for Seniors (BFS) offers a supportive, small-group environment to assist learners to gain the confidence and skills needed to use new technology
