The Raspberry Pi isn't just about a piece of hardware. It's enabling people to develop a career in computing, gain confidence in their skills and showcase talent. So if you are new to the Raspberry Pi or want to see how it can be used to automate your home, drive a robot - or automate your home, then please do come along.

This is the fourth Raspberry Jam that the Ipswich Makerspace have run. This is a single all day session and your ticket gives you access to the whole event. The venue is The Waterfront Building at the University of Suffolk and free parking is on-site in the Long St Car Park. All children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. While the actual running order for workshops and presentations has not been finalised yet, we wanted to give you access to tickets before they sell out.
