Ever wondered what it takes to run a code club for young people? Join us for an interactive session where you'll experience a real code club session firsthand, led by people who run code clubs themselves.

Learn how to run successful Code Clubs! We'll share tips, project ideas, and insights from running general and neurodiverse coding clubs.

Code Clubs offer an amazing opportunity to introduce our next generation to coding, with simple brightly colored drag-and-drop tooling to get them started, we are successfully inspiring many to join the tech industry. In this session I want to talk you through my journey setting up a Code Club for neurodiverse children, what I found worked, and what doesn’t. I hope that from this session you will be inspired to follow the same path I have, using your amazing tech experience to empower some of the most vulnerable children, enabling them to become inspired not just by coding, but the tech industry itself.
