Everyone involved with ACE IT are delighted and
thrilled at the news that once again all the hard work and effort
invested by ACE IT staff and volunteers has resulted in yet another
major national award.
The Moose In The Hoose is a project aimed at
introducing the benefits of computers and the Internet to those
living in Care Homes and attending Day Care Centres across
Edinburgh.
Over the last few years the 'Moose' has gone from
strength to strength with almost 30 volunteers providing regular
internet access and web assistance in a wide selection of
residential homes and care centres across Edinburgh. While the
hugely popular initiative has become a leading example of best
practice for organisations involved in working with those in
residential care, the project has never lost the sense of fun
enjoyed by those participating.
We (the Edinburgh Silver Surfers) send out our
heartfelt congratulations to everyone involved in the project over
winning the Nominet Internet Award 2010 for the category 'Nurturing
Powerful Local Partnerships'. A richly deserved recognition of the
Mooses' many achievements... Well done one and all! |
