Accommodation
If you are thinking of coming and need a place to stay, you'll need to find your own accommodation for this one. But do sign-up to the HacktionLab list and get in touch that way to see if anyone knows anyone who can put you up. Likewise if you know anyone there who can...
Cost
There will be a need to chip in a little for accommodation and using the Hackspace. This will be no more than £20 per person, hopefully less.
Food
No food etc is included for this one.
