Free goodies for good causes from Pimoroni
Our friends at Pimoroni have some good news for you. To celebrate making their 100,000th Pibow case , they’re giving away 512 Pibow Rainbow cases (and some accessories) to good causes.

Announcing our million-pound education charity fund
It’s been a busy month for us here at Pi towers, and after the recent announcement of Picademy and the launch of the new website with an increased focus on educational resources, you may be wondering what’s next for our educational mission. Without disappearing too far down the rabbit-hole of superlatives, I can say we are all super-excited to announce the launch of the Raspberry Pi Foundation Education Fund.

He’s raising money for men’s mental health, in memory of our friend Oggie , who died in 2007. He elected for the Magnum PI look (geddit?), but sadly, as the month has progressed, we have come to realise that Tom Selleck’s ability to grow hair on the top of his head as well helped him to avoid looking like an angry square-basher and gave him a certain Hawaiian je ne sais quoi .

Movember 2013: look! Eben can grow hair on at least one part of his head!
This year, Eben’s participating in Movember, and growing a moustache to raise funds for men’s mental health, in memory of our very dear friend Chris “Oggie” Lightfoot , who died in 2007.
