A SCHEME to boost access to technology in rural east Cleveland will be increasing its staff and improving its services after it bought new premises in Saltburn.

The Terminus Project was set up in November 1998 to overcome a lack of understanding of computers.

Now it will be moving into 14 Station Street in Saltburn to complement its existing training facilities at its headquarters a few doors away.

Andrew Vause, of Terminus, said: "It is expected that the installation will create additional jobs as well as providing enhanced computer facilities for the 250-plus learners."

Anyone interested in joining a course in January can apply by calling (01287) 624843.
