Dear all,

Ludwig Institute for Cancer Research based in Oxford has contacted Wikimedia UK with a request to have a introductory Wikipedia training run for them on Thursday 6 December, 10am-4pm, London. After Doug Taylor's presentation during AMRC workshop on 30 October 2012, one of the participants approached us with an interest in Wikipedia training. The staff most interested in participating in this training is the research scientists from the organisation.There are about 10-15 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 help run this session, please do sign up on the page or let me know. Especially local volunteers are encouraged to get involved. You can also get in touch if you have any questions.

Many thanks
Daria
