Following the success of Workbench 2019, we now need your help in planning our future events.
Our next meeting is scheduled for May/June 2019. However, due to increased numbers we may soon outgrow our current home, the Swindon MakerSpace.
Please consider taking a few minutes to complete this short, anonymous questionnaire. Help shape our future!
These are only available to order online and you will need to order them at least 3-5 days in advance as they are printed to order. I suggest you order them NOW as Amazon are giving a 1 week lead time.
With regards the price, the T-shirts I am able to offer these at £17.99 including VAT and FREE DELIVERY, (I heard there is a problem ordering under twenty quid to get FREE delivery without Prime. If you want, PayPal me the money and I will order it with my Prime to your address but you must supply me an email and message in the comments and i get back to you). All monies raised from the sales (typically £4 a shirt) will go toward the tournament prizing, last year with the help of the shirt sales created a nice £80 prize fund, hoping to do the same again for 2020.
