How to join our meeting using Zoom app or link.

You probably need to download the Zoom app onto your device or computer. You do NOT need to register unless you want to. If the app asks to use your speaker, microphone and camera allow it to, by accepting these options. (You can always turn them off later).

Zoom’s guidance can be found at: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362233

Just before the meeting starts open the app. Select: Join Meeting. Then you enter the meeting ID we have given you when prompted.

Then you will be asked to enter a password for the meeting. Type in the password we sent you.

This should take you into the meeting. If it fails keep trying. Zoom is very busy at the moment as everyone’s moving to online meetings but it’s usually very reliable.

When you join, your microphone will be off and your camera may be off too. Find the icons for the mike and camera and if there’s a cross through them click on it to enable. This may popup at the bottom or top of the screen depending on what device you’re using. You can stay silent indivisible if you wish. There’s a chat box to make input if you wish.

Please MUTE your microphone when you’re not speaking, so we don’t get lots of background noise from everyone.

Can’t get it working? You can still join by phone. Use one of Zoom’s UK telephone numbers to dial in using your phone BUT remember your phone network operator’s CHARGES will apply. So it’s probably not free unless you’ve got some unlimited package.

Enter the meeting ID number and your password when prompted.

What about using the meeting link?

This might work. It depends on your browser. Some browsers don’t seem to accept it. So if you get lucky and it takes you directly into the meeting, great.

You may be prompted to download the app anyway for it to work. Just follow the instructions above.
