FAQs

See our website for a more detailed list of FAQs - niraspberryjam.com

What is a Raspberry Jam?

A Raspberry Jam is an event for kids/adults of all ages to come together and learn a bit more about the Raspberry Pi and coding/electronics in general.

I have no previous experience with coding/electronics/Raspberry Pi?

That is no problem! All our Raspberry Jams are suited for beginners, right up to Pi experts, plus you only need an internet connection and web browser to take part in the activities.

How often do these Raspberry Jam events run?

The Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam usually run on the 2nd Saturday of every month (excluding July/August) throughout the year. They are free and involve new workshops/activities each month. Due to the current situation, we haven't had an event since February 2020, so we're trying our hand at online events!

What age range is this event suitable for?

All of our Raspberry Jam events are suitable for kids as young as 6, right up to adults of 106! Although the majority of the attendees at the Raspberry Jam events are young people, they are open to adults as well, especially parents of kids attending.

This event is run in collaboration with the School of Mathematics and Physics at Queens University and the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Queens University.

The Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam wouldn't be possible without support from Institution of Engineering and Technology, Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Northern Ireland Department of Communities, Nitec Solutions and Farset Labs.
