Let's get together to try to make things and/or make things that make things better for everyone!

This is not a competitive event. It is not just about coding or design. Anyone is welcome, providing they're interested in working in a team and making a thing.

Teams should aim to produce something during the hackathing, but you don't need to have an idea, OR a team, before you show up.

Teams could produce:

  • Plans or mockups for a future digital thingy (app, website etc)
  • Slideshow detailing an idea for a business/charity/event
  • Set of guidelines or a body of text helping people through some difficult process
  • A queer comic book, zine or a work of art
  • An app/website
  • A petition to the government/a governing body
  • Guidelines for venues/governments/schools/whatever on how to be more inclusive
  • Clothing repairs, alterations for your body
  • <Insert your own brilliant, creative idea here >
  • A cake to feed the other humans

It's all good. Just make a thing.
