‘Macs cannot catch a virus’ - wrong!
‘Macs cannot be hacked’ - wrong!
‘It will never happen to me’ - wrong!

Terms and conditions - what have you agreed to?

Mark will go through computer security using some real world examples, and offer advice on how to stay safe.

Complacency is your enemy.

When: 27 July 2025
Brad’s back!!

Everyone’s favourite Apple man is back in the building and will be bringing us up to speed on the latest Apple news.

PS Most of our members know Brad, but for those who don’t, he was a senior instructor at London’s Regent Street Apple store until two years ago when he decided to go freelance, and make his vast knowledge available to the rest of the world :)  A great, entertaining, warm, witty, knowledgeable speaker!

See you there!
