CAST are organising Design Hops for the Charity sector to increase their digital skills and digital services

Design Hops are the first step for charities exploring the role of digital in their services. By demystifying technology and design approaches, this free half-day creative workshop builds confidence and motivation to take the next step, as well as focus on what that immediate next step should be for each organisation.

There is one of these hops in Preston at Society 1 – Monday 11th February 2019, 12.30-4.30pm
