Meet the group turning Northern Ireland kids into innovators with free computer and coding classes

A dedicated volunteer group of makers, tinkerers and inventors have teamed up to host monthly events where people of all ages can come and learn about coding and electronics.

The Northern Ireland Raspberry Jam is a volunteer group of makers, tinkerers and inventors who, in collaboration with the School of Maths and Physics at Queen's University and a number of other organisations, run regular and free Raspberry Jams - coding/tinkering events using the Raspberry Pi computer.

Their aim is to offer a programme of free, regular and family friendly events, providing attendees with the opportunity to get hands on with coding and electronics, in a fun and practical setting.
