helping to run a series of workshops on digital tools for
campaigners and community activists. Anyone folk in Manchester or

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">
There are 4 sessions over Mondays in June and as spaces are
limited. It is possible to go to just some of the workshops, but
it would be great if people could sign up for all / as many as
possible so that you work as a group throughout and learn about
how to pass on skills. <br>
<br>
The contact e-mail to sign up for the workshops is <a
