King Island have you registered for next week's Digital Uplift workshops?

King Island Council's economic development officer Narelle Blackie points to Tasmania sitting below the national average on digital inclusion, and describes how the workshops will help residents feel more confident using health, government, banking and AI tools online, while also learning to spot scams and protect their personal information.

There's still time to book into one of the four free sessions running 4–6 August at the King Island Hub, plus a casual drop-in help session on the Thursday.
