For code clubs, Mike Trebilcock (@miketrebilcock / https://twitter.com/miketrebilcock) has done amazing work locally and continues to do so. He has been fundamental in setting up numerous code clubs across the county as well as helping others to do the same. I believe he now has a "template" in place allowing people to get new clubs up and running as simply as possible.
A recent collaboration for Mission to Mars was very successful and very well received:
http://www.softwarecornwall.org/mission-to-mars-success-at-software-cornwall/This nicely leads onto a new non-profit organisation, Software Cornwall (@SwCornwall / https://twitter.com/SwCornwall). They are working hard to try and promote Cornwall and the South West as an area of importance for technology:
http://www.softwarecornwall.org/Software Cornwall together with Cornwall College are hosting a tech week in December for anyone that might be interested:
http://www.softwarecornwall.org/cornwall-tech-week-7th-to-13th-december/ https://www.cornwalltechweek.org/Local tech news and support for code clubs could come from above as a starting point (and I'm sure much more). If you would like me to get in touch for potential collaboration with DC LUG (or just inclusion on the website and possibly vice-versa) I'd be more than happy to do so.
Just a few thoughts. On 02/11/15 22:12, Paul Sutton wrote:
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Jay Bennie has kindly started to help sort out the lug website. I decided to now ask how do we as the Devon and Cornwall Lug want to move on in to 2016. We currently have people spread out all over the region, which granted makes it harder to meet up, However What sort of information should we have on the site Tutorials. (we have lots) articles Are there any local activities such as code club people know about ? There was some robotics thing at a school on the news a while back. What would be good is to perhaps if there is any local tech news we include that in the blog too. As the Tech jam in Paignton also doubles up as a lug meet I was thinking of a section that makes that clearer plus including more info on the North Devon Meet in Holsworthy (neil can we include your contact e-mail as part of that please) Do you also still want your login for the site ? There is information to explain free software etc, Anything else ?
