Know How To - Volunteer with Code Club, empower the next generation ( partnered with Raspberry Pi Foundation)
What the event is about ?
Code Club Community Manager, Steph will provide an introduction to all things Code Club. Find out how you can get involved in supporting an existing club or start a new one for young people in your community.
What is Code Club?
Code Club is a global community of coding clubs where young people develop the skills and confidence to become digital tech creators. At Code Club, we think all young people should have the opportunity to learn to code, no matter who they are or where they come from.
How does it work?
Code Clubs are run by leaders and mentors who volunteer their time, experience, and passion to inspire the next generation of digital creators to shape the world around them. Leaders and mentors have a wide range of skills and backgrounds.
Code Club provides free, fun, step-by-step projects and pathways that young people follow to make games, animations, websites, and more with code. The projects introduce coding concepts one by one so young people can progressively build their knowledge using languages like Scratch, HTML and CSS, and Python.
Leaders and mentors can access lots of useful resources to help them run their clubs, including our Club Leader Guide, and downloadable certificates and posters. Our team also provides help and support through local training workshops, community events, and online information sessions.
Why should you get involved with Code Club?
- Empower the next generation
- Develop future talent
- Build your own skills in mentoring, organisation, and of course, coding
