Development House - Wikimedia UK's offices

Wikimedia UK is located in 'Development House' - a building that we are sharing with ca. 20 other charities. In May we delivered a short presentation for them talking about Wikimedia UK and Wikipedia, and as a result there was a lot of interest in learning to edit Wikipedia. This would be particularly interesting as the charities in the building all tackle very different issues, so their interests will be quite varied. We could help our co-residents by teaching them to create/improve articles about their charities, or improve the content about the issues they focus on.

Wikimedia UK has delivered a similar event a few months ago - one of the charities that attended was Pragya. It now has a brilliant Wikipedia article with great photos, which you can see here.
