City of York Council is opening West Offices up to 14-25 year olds on Saturday 8 October for Upload Live, an event being run in partnership between Virgin Media, Freeformers, and the recently NextGen award nominated CodeYork programme.
Upload Live will enable attendees to learn valuable skills such as how to code, understand how to bring an app idea to life and know how to stay safe online. Attendees will also find out which social media sites they should be using to ‘market’ their own skills and how these skills will help them in future careers.
Learning coding not only shows young people how to programme a computer but also build skills in problem solving and logic as well as develop skills that can be used in other activities, hobbies and careers.
Cllr Ian Gillies, Executive Member for Planning and Transport, with responsibility for Digital Infrastructure said: “Coding is a very important skill in the digital age, and it is great as a city to be able to offer young people fantastic opportunities to learn and hone their knowledge and skills, all while having fun. Anyone interested in attending this event should book their place as soon as possible to avoid disappointment”.
For more information or to book your place at this event visit http://bit.ly/uploadyork. If you are not in the specified age range for the event but are interested in attending, please contact the ICT Digital City Team at digitalcity@york.gov.uk who will be able to give advice on suitability.
