Special Interest & Hyperfixation PowerPoint Night

Everyone is invited to get together and share our special interests and hyperfixations with plenty of pizza and drinks to share on Wednesday the 12th of March, 2025 in [LC5.107 TBC] at 5pm-8pm!

Come along and learn lots of random new things, meet lovely new Disabled, Neurodivergent and allied friends, enjoy the pizza, and maybe even share your own special interest with a PowerPoint.

Want to present?

1. Please make sure your presentation doesn't exceed 5 minutes, doesn't contain any inappropriate or offensive content, and is accessible to those with disabilities.
2. Add your PowerPoint to the DDNA google drive: https://drive.google.com/drive... 
3. Alternatively, email it to deakindna@gmail.com prior to the event. If neither option works for you, bring along a laptop with a HDMI port and your PowerPoint ready to go. If you don't have a HDMI port on your laptop (e.g. Macbook Air), please bring along an adapter.
4. When you arrive, let us know when we scan your ticket that you would like to present, and your name will be drawn randomly. If we don't get to all the names, you will be called first at any future Powerpoint nights.
