[Digital-Mentor] Tender is open for Digital Mentors!

[Dave Briggs]

Yes, the event on the 19th looks like it will be an important one to
attend! Here's the details:

The Department will be hosting a workshop on 19 November 2008, 3-5pm
for those interested in tendering. This will be at the Department for
Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform, 1 Victoria Street, London
SW1H 0ET.

Please confirm your attendance by contacting Varian Kellar on 020 7944
5713 or Varian.Kellar at communities.gsi.gov.uk and ask for an expenses
claim form if you are from a voluntary or community sector
organisation.

I guess as many of us that can go the better - if you email Varian to
say you are going, can you let this list know as well?
