Week 529 – Snowflakes

by | Jul 26, 2021 | Weeknotes | 0 comments

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!

COVID-19

Click here for details of the of the measures we’re currently taking related to the COVID-19 situation, especially if you’re thinking of coming in to the space. We’ll keep you updated if anything changes – make sure you’re following us via our Google Group, and/or via social media.

10th Anniversary Celebrations

It’s DoES Liverpool’s 10th anniversary year! – something that everyone involved should be really proud about and that deserves to be celebrated in a big way.

We talked about having a party in the space during July – unfortunately COVID uncertainty meant we had to change our plans. At the Directors’ meeting we discussed rescheduling to August, but even then we still might be a bit restricted about what we can do – particularly in terms of the number of people we’d want to be in the space at the same time.

So, we’re looking at alternatives. We’d like to know which you’d prefer, and any ideas on how to make this an awesome celebration.

Let us know your ideas and preferences by filling in this quick survey and hopefully we can all get together to organise something that’s worthy of the event.
