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
We’re taking part in Wirral MakeFest on Saturday 10th May at Birkenhead Central Library. If you’ve got things you’d like to display and/or you’d like to help with organisation, please get in touch (and there’s a GitHub issue here that you can add your details to).
