The WordPress Essex Meetup has moved dates, we’re wanting to be as inclusive as possible and following feedback from the first event we have discovered that the second Thursday of the month prevented some from attending.
We will be holding another informal meetup for WordPress developers, designers, users and business owner.
This month it’s all about speed and proposals!
