An update from Mark Snowdon on the progress at Elm House
Think before you Click – Cyber Security Training Reminder
In last week’s newsletter our ICT Manager, Ben Meen spoke about the importance of being cyber aware. We also let you know that you would be invited to mandatory online cyber security training. We require everyone to undertake the training within a month after receiving the invitation to make sure we are as cyber-aware as we can be at #Teambreckland.
You should have received a link from our cyber training specialist CC2i and Hutsix asking you to register and undertake the required training. The email has been sent from donotreply@email.hutsix.io.
If you have not received the link or cannot locate the email please let the ICT Helpdesk know.

Ukraine Donations Welcome
We’ve all been shocked by the unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine. Few of us imagined this would happen in Europe in 2022 and in the wake the sudden aggression, millions of people have fled their homes with just what they can carry
The Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC) is an international partnership of 12 of the leading humanitarian charities responding directly to global crises like this. So far, they have raised £100m for Ukraine which will make a huge difference in providing shelter, food, toiletries, and essential services to the millions of people fleeing the war. If you would like to donate please follow the link provided.
