The D8 Surfers Club has been running at The Digital Hub since 2015. It started life as a tutor-led class, where local residents, who had limited experience of communication tools and the internet, learned how to use a computer in a structured way, and were guided in their discovery of how digital technologies could benefit them in their everyday lives.
In the years since, the club evolved to a more informal drop-in session where participants meet weekly for two hours to learn from one another in a pleasant social environment.
