Thanks Phil, Looks like it is a 20 minute walk west from Piccadilly [1]. I've messaged to check that there is time during the meeting to cover OpenStreetMap. Would be looking for a basic intro to editing (perhaps with iD as that seems to be the starter editor of choice now) and pointing in the direction of the UK Quarterly project [2]. Would be good to demo how to find a school that needs mapping (using the tools we have), then how to add a simple amenity=school area to OSM. I shall let you know when I know more. Best, *Rob* [1] http://opendatamanchester.org.uk/2016/01/13/open-infrastructure-night-open-data-and-open-iot/ [2] https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/UK_Quarterly_Projects
