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!

Wirral MakeFest is on Saturday 1 June – please get in touch if you’d like to volunteer on the day and/or have stuff to display. We had a great time last year and met some really interesting makers.
