FAQs

  • What if I want to take part in the hack but don’t have a team?

    Don’t worry! There are lots of registrants who don’t have a team from the very beginning. You’ll be able to find and chat to others who are looking for a team on our Discord server.

  • Do I need experience to take part?

    Nope - everyone is encouraged to take part, regardless of experience or ability! Practice makes perfect.

  • Who can take part?

    As long as you are over 18 and a woman or non-binary, you can take part in the hack.

  • How big should a team be?

    The maximum number of members in a team is 5, but anything below that is up to you!

  • Is it just open to people in the UK?

    No! The timings will be GMT, but with the hack being virtual, it’s open to anyone around the world
