WordPress Glasgow's first meetup, August 2016

This is not a commercial group, nobody will try to sell you anything.
We all volunteer our time and work together to build our local WordPress community.

We also have a Code of Conduct we expect all our members, speakers, organisers and sponsors to adhere to.
