Over the weekend of September 18th- 20th, ACOSVO <http://www.acosvo.org.uk/>, in association with Mallzee <http://mallzee.com/#/> and Social Stampede <http://social-stampede.com/>, will be running a 'hack-a-thon' event aiming to improve the work of the third sector in Scotland through technological innovation. We're working with six amazing charities who will each present a digital challenge from their organisations.

 <http://www.drakemusicscotland.org/>         <http://breastcancernow.org/>        <http://www.carnegieuktrust.org.uk/home>
 <http://www.cvsinverclyde.org.uk/>      <http://www.carers.org/>          <http://www.visibility.org.uk/>

The tech experts will break into teams and have 48 hours to design a solution to one of these challenges. A winning team will be chosen based on the most creative and innovative design that will most effectively help the beneficiaries of their chosen charity.
If you have an interest in the Scottish technology community, whether as a designer, developer, marketeer or anything else, then we want you!

Thanks a lot.
