An evening of online talks and networking for people with an interest in digital making - on a special theme of "wearables" 
During social distancing, all our events are online. We invite anyone, anywhere who may be interested to join us to hear presentations, demonstrations and discussion that focus on digital making themes that may include Raspberry Pi computers, Arduino, Minecraft, Micro:bits, Python, Scratch etc. All presentations are recorded, so it's fine to register and catch-up when you can.
Please note that ticket registrations close two hours before the event starts. 
Programme:
6.30-7.00pm: Technical Rehearsal - pre-meet discussion and opportunity for presenters to test settings
7.00-8.30pm: Talks - Short presentations lasting 5 minutes each. Members of our community tell us about something they've seen, discovered or been working on. Talks do not have to be related to Raspberry Pi or be the presenter's own projects.
