I have organised a Forest Gate Freedom Walk. The walk will start at Forest Gate Learning Zone and finish at Clapton Football Club. (Approximately just over a mile). We will be looking at points of interest along the way and will finish with light refreshments at the football club which has a very interesting story as well. The walk will be led by Peter Ashan , a local educator. Peter was born in East London and has organised many such walks in this part of the world.
Further details are below.

SAVE THE DATE
AI has been around since the 1950’s, but has recently
leapt into prominence in the news with comments ranging
from praise for its astonishing benefits to alarming
stories of the end of humanity. With the UK government’s new
announcement about a national AI initiative we need more than
ever to understand what AI means for the world, for
organisations and for us as individuals.
If you have tried AI and found the
results underwhelming, this workshop will explain why
and how you may choose to make AI your assistant.
We will explore what AI is and how it works, provide
case studies of its application, discuss the issues and
challenges, and offer demonstrations of AI tools that are
available to all u3a members. The event is hosted by
London Region of U3As, but led by members of the Third Age
Trust’s ‘AI for Everyone Team’.
Further information about the programme will be
disseminated at the end of February with a link to the
application form. Bookings launch 28th February 2025
