Zacchaeus announces two new 12-week Digital Skills for Life programmes designed specifically for Tower Hamlets residents aged 50 and older who do not have internet access or a computer/ tablet device. These programmes are intended to help participants learn how to go online, use social media to stay in touch with family and friends, and manage daily tasks with digital devices. We invite everyone, English speakers and those who require English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) support.
Registration for these courses is now complete.
HOW'S YOUR FEET?
Due
to a huge increase in demand for our podiatry service, we have taken
the difficult
decision to return to the original intention for the service provided
at the Zacchaeus Project. Consequently,we are now giving our highly-subsidised appointments only to Zacchaeus members who receive one or more of
the following Means-Tested Benefits:
- Council Tax Reduction
- Employment & Support Allowance (ESA)
- Housing Benefit
- Job-Seekers Allowance (JSA)
- Pension Credit
- Universal Credit
If you receive one or more of the listed benefits and wish to book a (reduced rate) podiatry appointment, please drop into the Zacchaeus office with your benefit award letter. For those for whom this does not apply, we are very sorry for the disappointment that this change will cause. You can still book to consult Joan Williams as she runs clinics elsewhere throughout the borough and Sam Arthur works locally on Roman Road. Their contact details are:

LOCAL NETWORK
We are part of the network of local groups and providers, meeting from time to time to share ideas.
LIBRARY
We are building up our lending library again in Bethnal Green. If you have any books to donate, which you think people will enjoy, please bring them along to the office. Jigsaws (complete please) also welcome.
The Project runs as Members Only. Apply any time; just fill in a form. There is no charge!
It is most important to us that membership be open to everyone, that it creates a sense of belonging and it is easy to administer. Please let us know if your contact details have changed, or if you would like to give us any additional contact details e.g. your email address or mobile number. We will continue to send out the newsletter by post, but we also use email and text to communicate more regular Zacchaeus Project updates to our members where possible.
