The Manchester SIM Hub met again in September at our usual venue, the Wharf Pub. We were pleased to welcome new Apprentice Pascal Newton-Edgar to the group who will be studying Electrical Engineering in Manchester over the coming years. Our next hub meeting will be on Thursday November 20th. We look forward to seeing members old and new at our next gathering.
Enjoyed a splendid evening at the Four Liveries event hosted by the Clockmakers at their museum – within the Science Museum’. A really good turn out despite the tube strike!’
