Each week we’ll endeavour to publish some details of the interesting things that members of DoES Liverpool have been up to over the past seven days. You can find out a bit more about them in our introductory post.
And remember, if you’re involved with DoES Liverpool at all, let us know what you get up to so we can include it here!

The Big Move
Did you hear, we’ve moved to The Tapestry, just off London Road. We’re open for business, but while we’re settling in we’re including a brief update on how things are going each week.
Things are in a bit of a holding pattern on the big to-do items as we chase down quotes. However, we will be getting blackout blinds fitted to the events space this week, moving that along.
We could also do with prioritising replacing the missing putty on the windows in Room 29 to give it time to dry before we paint it. Anyone want to brush up (or gain) their skills?
If you want to help out, check the DoES Move The Tapestry and DoES Move – Settling In labels on the Somebody Should issue list, or get in touch.
