Week 698 – Wayback Netballs, Lifehouses

by | Oct 22, 2024 | 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!

Community Meeting (Future Gazing Part 2)

At our recent Future Gazing event, we talked about reintroducing community meetings.
The first one, or Future Gazing Part 2, is going to be on Sunday 27th October from 2pm – 4pm (the most popular choice in Chris H’s Doodle Poll), to talk about issues relating to running the space, including finances and price rises. It would be great to see as many people as possible, and if you weren’t able to get along to Future Gazing Part 1, you can catch up by reading Adrian’s summary, and take a look here for the complete Google Group thread relating to this.

Things of Note
