TAL session in Chelmsley Wood McDonald's – we're lovin' it!

We’ve been talking to Andrew Mackenzie, for some time about delivering some talk about local activity in the Chelmsley Wood area of Solihull.  It’s a large area currently undergoing huge redevelopment that could definately do with an online voice to help bring people together, get them talking to each other, taking action and helping to improve external perceptions.

So with Andrew and Alan Colson of Let’s Be Social organising things the Chelmsley Wood end, we’re due to have a talk about local social media surgery style session on Tuesday 1st December.  We did hit a wall trying to find somewhere with good WiFi until Alan hit on the genius idea of holding it in the local McDonald’s – it’s a place people go, has great WiFi and Happy Meals.  What more could we want?

So join us at McDonald’s, 345 Boswrth Drive, Chelmsley Wood B37 5EX on Tuesday 1st December at 6.00pm if you’re nearby and would like to learn how to create a website, or perhaps get advice about one you already have.  Our help is completely free, but the hamburgers aren’t.
