SUMMARY:Ask Mike - Get your carers questions answered
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are new to caring or have been caring for some time\, you will know that things are constantly changing – both in your caring role and in the environment around you. \nCarers often have a myriad of questions\, and they do not come all at once but crop up as life takes its turns.  There is a huge amount of information out there\, especially on the internet\, but with that comes the question of what information you can trust. \nWe are going to experiment with a new weekly drop-in between now and the begining of June.  Run on Zoom (details below) you can come and get the answers to any questions that you might have and if we cannot answer them directly\, we will find someone who can. \nSo whether it is about local transport\, benefits and entitlements\, or anything else that might be on your mind.  Just pop along to the weekly Ask Mike session and get the answers that you need. \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83950252394?pwd=LhEVnrFy9uhkz4PWIgiEpKZMiksQjv.1Meeting ID: 839 5025 2394Passcode: 007964 \n

SUMMARY:Lunchtime Learning - Introducing AI for Carers
DESCRIPTION:Unless you have been living in a cave you will not have been able to escape the growth and influence of artificial intelligence or AI.  If you own a smart ‘phone\, a computer or a tablet then you will have access to it. \nBut what does it mean to you?  There are many views out there from people who are either champions or sceptics (and everybody in between).  Wherever\, you sit on that spectrum\, AI is here to stay and will be used increasingly across all parts of our lives – so it is well worth getting to understand it. \nThis lunch and learn session will just look at the basics of AI and how it might be useful to carers.  We will look at some of the basic tools\, some of the precautions you can take to ensure you get what you want out of AI and\, of course\, how it might really help and support you. \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83950252394?pwd=LhEVnrFy9uhkz4PWIgiEpKZMiksQjv.1Meeting ID: 848 4224 6722Passcode: 851462 \n

SUMMARY:Ask Mike - Get your carers questions answered
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are new to caring or have been caring for some time\, you will know that things are constantly changing – both in your caring role and in the environment around you. \nCarers often have a myriad of questions\, and they do not come all at once but crop up as life takes its turns.  There is a huge amount of information out there\, especially on the internet\, but with that comes the question of what information you can trust. \nWe are going to experiment with a new weekly drop-in between now and the begining of June.  Run on Zoom (details below) you can come and get the answers to any questions that you might have and if we cannot answer them directly\, we will find someone who can. \nSo whether it is about local transport\, benefits and entitlements\, or anything else that might be on your mind.  Just pop along to the weekly Ask Mike session and get the answers that you need. \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83950252394?pwd=LhEVnrFy9uhkz4PWIgiEpKZMiksQjv.1Meeting ID: 839 5025 2394Passcode: 007964 \n
