Issue #153 - Connector

Hi everyone

In case you missed it: the Pi Zero was re-launched on Monday – it’s still $5 but comes with a camera connector so you can use the camera module (old or new) with it.

This week we added a new About Us page to the website, which includes a collection of downloads about the Foundation’s work: the annual reviews; strategy document; trustees’ reports and financial statements.

Two Picademy events took place this week, in London and Newcastle; and Carrie Anne published an article answering common questions about the free CPD course.
