NEXT EVENTS

CyberWomen@Coventry is all about bringing together anyone who loves computing and technology. We’re part of a nationwide network of CyberWomen Groups, but our Coventry Branch meets weekly to connect, learn, and have fun. By “cyber,” we mean anything related to computers—whether it’s programming, game design, 3D modelling, or app development. You don’t have to be a woman to join us; we just want people who support diversity in tech. Last year, we did cool stuff like dismantling and rebuilding PCs, and this year, we're planning even more—from coding and website building to public speaking practice, debates, knit-and-chat sessions, and coffee meetups. Whether you're looking to dive into a tech project or just want to hang out and chat, there's something here for you. If you’re into anything cyber, come check us out—we’d love to have you! You can join us at our next meeting or connect with us on Discord.
