As you may know UCanDoIT (www.ucandoit.org.uk) is a charity that teaches
disabled adult students how to use the Internet and email. Almost 2000 students
have been taught by us. Teaching is on a one-to-one basis in student's own
homes. This is particularly relevant to many disabled people as they often can
not physically attend classes or, even more often, there are no classes with
tutors trained in specialist software.
Fundraising gets more difficult each year but we believe that tuition like this
should be the responsibility of the government so we have an online petition on
the No 10 Downing Street website http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/ucandoit/
We are asking if you could sign it, forward it, add it to your ezines,
newsletters or any other communications that will bring it people's attention.
We really want to get as many names as possible on the petition in the hopes of
persuading at least one government body to take responsibility for funding
tuition.
If you need any further information please contact us.
