Hi Will,
MPAS also run the occasional Telescope Learning day to help beginners learn how to use the telescopes they've bought. Though if you join the society and bring it along to a viewing night, I'm pretty sure someone could give your 130EQ a spin and show you some of the show piece sights through it.
Though the 130EQ comes with a pointer rather than a finderscope. You may need to buy a finderscope for it to find smaller objects. Depends how good your eyesight is.
Regards,
Renato
