Northern Soul |
Northern Soul, The first gig for our Northern chapter is at [MadLab](http://madlab.org.uk/ "") in Manchester’s Northern Quarter on 5–7 October.
[Loz](https://twitter.com/BecauseStudio ""), [Mark](https://twitter.com/greenape "") and [Andy](https://twitter.com/RSWorks "") have picked three local social innovators to support with 48 hours of turbo-charged hacking, making, designing and doing. We're very excited about the three causes we'll be working with, Signposts, Carbon Coop and Mountains of Hope. Expect great people, music and food, and the massive buzz of making a whole lot of tangible things in a single weekend.
