SEIFRIED FAMILY WINEMAKERS - THANK YOU TO OUR CALENDAR SPONSOR FOR MARCH 2020
We are very grateful to the 12 sponsors who helped fund the SeniorNet Nelson 2020 Calendar published by our Digital Imagery Group (DIG). The calendar shows off the attractions of the beautiful Nelson/Tasman Region in images all taken by DIG members. Each sponsor generously funded one month of the calendar and the quick sale of all the calendars made this endeavour a very successful fundraiser. We plan to highlight the "sponsor for the month" each month throughout the year to say thank you. To learn more about the ALL THE SPONSORS CLICK/TAP THE IMAGE.

LATEST NEWS - WE CONNECTED at the CONNECT EXPO
A group of SeniorNet Nelson Volunteers made many connections on Saturday 7th March to showcase our work.
We were at the Volunteer Expo at Annesbrook Church along with another 30 community organisations to tell the public all about the work we do and ways that they can get involved.
We always need more volunteers to help us help our older community.
This event has put us in touch with a lot of engaging people and that will raise our profile in the community. We also met a number of interesting people who may want to Connect with us, which is very good news. Thank you to our Volunteers who all enjoyed the day.

DROP-IN SESSIONS ARE SUSPENDED
In the last newsletter it was mentioned that "on the horizon is an increase in the hours that the centre is open". The reasoning being that help and advice, and the resources of the centre would be more available to members. We are happy to say now that this is going to be the case. New drop-in sessions are scheduled for Mondays and Fridays: 10 am - 12 pm, in the Hall. They will be staffed by several dedicated volunteers. This new regime will start on MONDAY 2ND MARCH. To read the complete email click/tap the image or the title.
