My story
Let's Claim Hut 6 For Our Software Community!
Bletchley Park needs to raise match-funding of £1.7M so they can claim £4.6M in lottery funding to do much needed work on restoring historic buildings used by the code breakers in WWII.
If we can raise the cost of restoring Hut 6, we can have the building dedicated to our software development community instead of some corporation or funding body.
We're proposing that everyone who gives via this page will have their names and messages listed in a book of dedication that will be kept in perpetuity in the restored Hut 6, so everyone will know that we did our part.
The larger your donation, the earlier your name will appear and the larger the font it will appear in.
I know these are tough times, but please give what you can and help us to claim Hut 6 for the software community.
