Hi Mark - even if there's a shortage of one-to-one long-term volunteers available, we'll try and do a general help event in the next few months, as it's a bit overdue. Unless someone gets back here to volunteer, there's not a huge amount in Belfast for on-going free mentoring/fixing, but there are some events on meetup if she would be interested in learning more herself?

Also, see you're down for the event in Belgium - looking forward to seeing you there!
With best wishes,
Phil

what version of windows is she using and what kind of help does need - might be able to assist depending on location and availability?

Hi Mark,

What does your ma need help with?
Is it to reinstall Linux on it?

I was able to install Ubuntu using;

Obviously, it's up to yourself.
