The buildings are wheelchair friendly and the surroundings pleasant and modern. The scheme operates in the Allan Bean Centre Library, Burwood Hospital, on Saturdays between the hours of 9am – 1.30pm.

Barrier Free Computing is not intended as a training course, but assistance is available for those who require it whether novice computer users or otherwise. More experienced users can work at their own level.

As the number of computers available at the Allan Bean Centre is limited (10), it is necessary to book your place in advance for Saturday sessions, otherwise places will be allocated on a first come – first served basis. Bookings may be made during sessions on Saturdays

There are no costs involved in attending these sessions thanks to the generosity of the New Zealand Spinal Trust . Tutor wages are paid by the Tertiary Education Commission and volunteer expenses are met through grants from COGS and the Lottery Grants Board.
