#SheffDataforGood: Homelessness Focus Data Hack

Sheffield Data for Good brings together the data and social expertise in Sheffield to help solve the city’s social problems. And it's for anyone that's interested, not just 'data experts'.

Last November, we started to look at homelessness in Sheffield and have since been trying to establish what questions people have about homelessness and what data is available to answer these questions.

Since our last meetup in September, a small group from Sheffield Data for Good have been working closely with Roundabout to understand what data they are collecting and what this can tell us.

We are pleased to announce that as a result of this work, Roundabout now have 6 datasets they can open up to us for a data hack.

We will be running this hack as a full day event on a Saturday early next year but more details about the event and datasets will follow.

This will be our first Sheffield Data for Good hack which is really exciting but if you have any thoughts or tips for the hack, please let us know.

You own it
legup.social is free and supported by Paper, but we don't own it, you do.

No cost
There is no cost to attend, and our digital people aren’t paid.

Our digital people are busy people
While the event is free we ask that if you want to work together outside of legup.social that you agree commercially how you’re going to work together.

No cold callers
If you want to win work, or sell your products this isn’t the place for you. It’s purely for the good of the community and those people who want to offer some time for free within our network.

Don’t be scared to ask
Our mentors provide advice and guidance based on experience, but it’s ultimately up to you whether you act on (any) of it.

You're welcome any time
We encourage first timers and repeat visitors. Please pre register before attending though.
