InIT (Intergenerational Project)
InIT is a newly formed youth group who are coming together for the purpose of aiding older members of the public to develop there knowledge of I.T skills. The group meets every second week at the Adult Learning Centre where with the support of Adult Learning and Youth Services. We look at different areas of I.T that will be delivered at future workshops. We are developing our communication and tutoring skills which will be essential for working with the public. There are currently two Youth Clubs involved in this project, Sandwick Senior Youth Club and Scalloway Senior Youth Club.
