What are you looking forward to this year? SoCraTes software crafting unconferences / open spaces happen across the world, in beautiful surroundings and with lovely people. So if you’re making plans for 2026, now’s the time to give yourself something to get excited about...
...because tickets are on sale for SoCraTes UK 2026! https://socratesuk.org/tickets.html
Only six weeks to go now until SoCraTes UK 2026!
We’re very excited, and we’re now on a final push to sell as many tickets as possible. We’re a community not-for-profit event, and every sale makes a huge difference to us. So we really appreciate every individual who joins us, as well as anything people can do to help publicise the event.
For those in Manchester, I'm hosting some TDD fun with the tiny maze kata at Ada in Ancoats tomorrow night. Come join me!

Would you like to learn ways for your team to maximise collaboration, onboard new team members, learn together, share knowledge, spread best practice at maximum speed and dial up team cohesion and enjoyment to the max?
Join me in Amsterdam in June for #GOTOams with @GOTOCon@twitter.com, where I'll be running a day long masterclass in ensemble working / mob programming (Mon 26 Jun): https://gotoams.nl/2023/masterclasses/395/working-in-an-ensemble
All very exciting!
