Video Meetings

During the Covid19 virus outbreak, all club face-to-face meetings are suspended. However, we are intending to continue by using video-conferencing, wherever possible.

The software we have chosen to use is “Zoom” which is a well-used and respected suite suitable to our purpose. “Zoom” allows for up to 100 people to be present (virtually!) for a meeting, regardless of their location.

The equipment you need can be a suitably-equipped desktop, a laptop (most of which have cameras and mics these days), a tablet or a smartphone. For PC, your web browser will download “Zoom” automatically when you start or join your first “Zoom” meeting. Simple instructions are provided at the time of joining a meeting. For tablets and smartphones, it will be necessary beforehand to install the free Zoom meeting software from the Android or Apple store.

Will I need super-fast broadband to join a meeting?

No, Zoom is incredibly efficient in using bandwidth. The company states that 2 or 3 Mbits/sec is enough.

To join a meeting the user will receive an email invitation from the host which will include a link to the “Zoom” website: clicking this will log-in the user and allow the meeting to be viewed.
