About Code Like A Girl

Code Like A Girl creates accessible, low-cost education and pathways into technology. It addresses the under representation of women in IT – less than 24% in the workforce and only 1 in 10 enrolments in IT based degrees.
As well as providing strong female role models in the tech industry, it delivers community coding workshops for various levels and ages, as well as high quality tech-infused events with inspirational speakers and activities.
