Dear all,

Parkinson's UK has contacted Wikimedia UK with a request to have a introductory Wikipedia training run for them on Thursday 11 October, 10am-4pm, London. They have found out about us after hearing about the Cancer Research collaboration, and were inspired to also help Wikipedia in the field of their expertise. There are about 10 people from the charity that are interested in taking part in the event, most/all of these would be newcomers to Wikipedia.

I have created a simple page with the details:

If you would like to run/help run this session, please do sign up on the page or let me know. You can also get in touch if you have any questions.

Many thanks
Daria
