For the fifth year running, we’re sponsoring a free SkeptiCamp event as part of QED weekend.
At SkeptiCamp, the attendees are responsible for the creation and delivery of the day’s content, and anyone
is eligible to present a talk. You don’t need to be a published author, famous podcaster or professional
communicator to get involved. SkeptiCamp Manchester 2018 takes place on Friday 12th
October and is completely free!
