Good for Nothing Nottingham is about doing good stuff, for nothing, for social enterprises in Nottingham.
Our first gig / hack / event / 24 hours of awesomeness happened 10 months ago with Marsha Smith of The Super Kitchen and Nicola Hinton of EcoWorks. Here's a couple of blogs that tell the story of what happened.

Because of all of that we decided we wanted to do it all again - and we're super excited to be doing it with Jill Carter of Pulp Friction. Pulp Friction work to raise the positive profile of young adults with learning disabilities. They have three priorities - to encourage independence, enable work readiness and to develop social skills.
Pulp Friction is a smoothie bar project, they provide personal support programmes, they're a choir, an allotment project, they do activity days and social events, they have an ice-cream bike .... and with all of this going on they could really do with some help.
And that's where the briefs come in ...

create the next evolution of their website
