Week 705 – Boost Membership, Party, Synths

by | Dec 9, 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!

January Start Boost Membership

Please help us spread the word!
If you, or any of your friends, could do with a Boost to get a new idea off the ground (or even just to keep going…), then take a look at our Boost scheme – 6 months free desk or workshop membership here at DoES Liverpool, conveniently situated near the centre of the city. Join our innovative community!
It’s a draw so everyone has an equal chance.

It’s that time of year – so we’re inviting you again to help make the DoES end-of-year party super special!

Bring (if you can!):
– ⁠any friends who love a Xmas do
– some food for the potluck table and something for you to drink
– ⁠something small you’ve made (found, borrowed) for our Santa Lucky Dip

Share (if you like!):
– your best or worst of the year
– ⁠your hopes or plans for 2025
