My story

Over the Air is a grass-roots mobile developer "unconference" featuring technical workshops, inspiring Ignite Talks, and an overnight Hack Day. From Friday June 1st to Saturday June 2nd we will be holding our 5th annual event at Bletchley Park for the second time.  

Although the event is free to attend, we would like to encourage everyone who has registered for OTA12 to make a small donation of at least £5 to the National Museum of Computing to support their great work.

If together we can raise £4,000, this will enable TNMOC to extend their learning workshops to include practical hardware activities using devices such as Raspberry Pi, Arduino, Fignition, etc.  They would like to purchase a reasonable number of these devices to support their education activites, as well as an iPad or two to explore how new technology can enhance their collection and how they display it.

While you're at OTA12, be sure to take advantage of the opportunity to take a tour of Bletchley Park and the National Museum of Computing. We're sure you'll be very impressed by their collection, as well as the amazing history of this location and it's role as the birthplace of computing.

This is your chance to give back a little!

(Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. )

My updates 4

The 5th annual Over the Air has now been wrapped up, but we'll be keeping the fund-raising effort live so that we can help out the Museum as much as possible. Please give generously - they are educating the next generation of coders and code-breakers!

On Saturday, attendees of OTA12 will have free access to TNMOC (including Colossus) from 1-5pm when the volunteers are in working on machines. You must be wearing your badge. This provides for those that want to browse rather than tour and also meet and chat with volunteers.

On Friday there will be two tours of TNMOC (max 20 people per tour), lasting approx one hour: 1.00pm (enables those who attend to follow on with the BP tour at 2.30pm) 3.00pm
