Drupal North West UK

matason's picture

The North West Drupal User Group meets once a month at the MDDA in Manchester.

Admission is free, and you're welcome to bring your Drupal questions and problems, as well as any projects you'd like to demo.
We usually have a good turnout of people, ranging from complete beginners to full-time developers, so if you're looking to learn more about Drupal, this user group is a great place to start.

We like to have a mix of demos, breakout sessions and general Drupal banter with time for questions and one-on-one help.
There's the added option of moving on to a nearby pub for refreshment, usually The Old Monkey...

Practical Drupal for Small NGOs

Mon, 28/09/2009 - 00:21 — dokumori
[28/Oct/09 The first event will take place on Friday the 6th, November 2009!]
[8/Oct/09 - We have received 10 applications so although we keep accepting applications, we cannot support new applicants immediately. But your application will be in queue so please submit your application using the form below!]
[1/Oct/09 - added new roles. also changed the visibility setting so this post is visible in all groups. Some people based outside of London are interested in attending so why not!]
I have been fascinated by the idea and underlying ethos of Drupal for NGOs initiated by Rob Purdie. The group has had a number of meetups but it seems to me it hasn't yielded much collaborations or exciting projects yet, which doesn't keep my heart dancing.

    Hi. We're an online magazine targeted at business students and currently looking at the possibility of adding social networking features to the site. Are there any freelance Drupal developers out there who could possibly help us out (either on a formal or informal basis) - specifically on the social networking modules and its general build?

    DrupalCampUK hashtag

    Due to several mis-spelling of duck on Flickr, we're changing the DrupalCampUK hashtag to #drupalcampuk.

    Hopefully that won't get confused with anything else...
