Raspberry Jams are a great way to find out more about the Raspberry Pi single-board computer. The event is suitable for complete novices, and we will have workshops on:

SETUP_me: setting up your Raspberry Pi for the first time
LINUX_n00bs: getting started with the Raspberry Pi's Linux based operating system
GPIO_101: getting started with the General Purpose Input/Output features of the Raspberry Pi, and simple programs

As well as worshops for newbies, for more advanced users we're also going to have discussion and demonstrations from Raspberry Pi experts, showing what you can do with these cheap and awesome computers.

Buy a Pi

You can pre-order your Raspberry Pi kit by choosing a Raspberry Pi Kit Ticket. This includes a brand new Raspberry Pi 3 computer, a case, power supply, and SD card.

Accessories

We will also have Raspberry Pi kits and accessories available for sale on the day, including the latest Raspberry Pi 3 computer, cases, monitors, adapters, SD cards, keyboards, mice and other things too. Proceeds go to help maintain and improve Leigh Hackspace, which is a non-profit community organisation, dedicated to making Leigh the centre of the North West Tech Universe!
