It's back! The world-famous CiviCRM UK Sprint is running again 16th - 21st September 2024. We are returning to the same venue as last year (and taking our own Starlink broadband!) - Somersal Cottages near Ashbourne, Derbyshire.

Alongside this we will also be running Developer Training - designed for those wanting to get started with CiviCRM development.

As always the Sprint will be a combination of development, documentation and lots of discussions (some of them about CiviCRM…). For those new to the CiviCRM world, this is a great opportunity to get to know some of the community in person - have a read of Theresa's experience of her first sprint last year.

Unlike some other sprints, this one is residential - we all stay in Somersal Cottages and eat together. The price includes accommodation and (almost) all the food you could want.

We will try to provide lifts to and from Uttoxeter train station (the nearest train station to the cottages). Plan to arrive around 4pm on Monday September 16th and leave 10am on Saturday 21st. (The event is flexible so we understand if you need to arrive late or leave early but it may be that you have to book a taxi for the journey to and from the train station.) If there is sufficient interest we will look at arranging a coach from Manchester. Let us know if you would be interested in that.

Places are limited and booking is open now - so see more details and book your place.
