Unfortunately, due to recent events we have been unable to fill this event and have had to cancel. We are planning to hold a similar event in the future.

Calling all GOSH outpatients! Join our digital making event on Saturday 17 September 2 - 3:30pm.

Together with the Raspberry Pi foundation, we'll explore physical computer building and programming. It'll be fun and interactive and introduce you to some basic coding concepts.
