Each week we'll endeavour to publish some details of the interesting things that members of DoES Liverpool have been up to over the past seven days. You can find out a bit more about them in our introductory post.
And remember, if you're involved with DoES Liverpool at all, let us know what you get up to so we can include it here! The easiest way is to post on Mastodon - if we follow you there, just add #weeknotes to any post you want included. If you’re not on Mastodon but would like to be, chat to one of the organisers and we’ll help you get started. And of course, you can always just send us an email!
Boost Membership
You've got until midnight on Monday 31st August to apply for our Boost membership starting 1st October. Details and application form here.
Liverpool MakeFest – Sunday, 13th September
Get in touch with one of the organisers if you're a Maker at DoES Liverpool and want to display your stuff on the DoES Liverpool stand. If you want to help out, you can fill in the volunteer form here.
 
Otherwise, we'd love to see you here on the day! If you want an advance peek of who's taking part, there's a list here.
 
Things of Note
