Introducing UKriders.info

UKriders.info has been established by Lasa as a resource and meeting place for UK-based Circuit Riders and other ICT development and support workers in the voluntary sector. Circuit Riders are voluntary sector technology development and support workers, each of whom supports a caseload of organisations the same way a development worker might.

In the UK there are more than 380 subscribers to the UKriders email list who are there because they are interested in circuit riding or are a Circuit Rider themselves. If you are new to the term 'circuit rider' then you might want to take a look at the following pages which gives some information who Circuit Riders are an what they do and about the background to the development of Circuit Riding in the UK.

This site will act as a focus for UK Riders through provision of resources, conference notes, statement of priciples by which we work with organisations and other signatories, training and quality standards, publications suich as case studies, evaluations, guides and reports and for UK Riders to have their own hosted blog.
