Hi all,
May I use this opportunity to promote Django Girls Manchester, and a few more events?... <https://djangogirls.org/manchester/> *Django Girls Manchester* For those of you who have been to PyCon UK 2015 in Coventry in September, you may have heard of Django Girls. For those of you who don’t know, Django Girls is a non-profit organisation, to promote women in programming by offering a one-day free workshop to create a web site (blog) in Python and Django. As a previous attendee of Django Girls Coventry, I decided to bring this wonderful workshop to Manchester to help women in the city and beyond. So I teamed up with my wonderful friend Claire Dodd to organise Django Girls Manchester. It will take place at Madlab Manchester, on the 13th February 2016 (and an installation party in the evening before). Our website outlines the details of the workshop, how you could sponsor, volunteer to be a coach or apply to attend. *Click here to find out more: Django Girls Manchester <https://djangogirls.org/manchester/> and follow us on twitter: @djangogirlsmcr <https://twitter.com/DjangoGirlsMcr>* We need your help!!!
