we have a basic draft website up @ http://conkertu.tumblr.com

ConkerTU is a partnership between Steve Hamilton, @visitconkers, Phil Campbell, @philcampbell and Emma Bryn-Jones, @Zerocredit_UK and we're inviting you join us in contributing to the most inclusive and sustainable Tweetup venture yet!
Conkers (http://www.visitconkers.com/ ), the award winning attraction set in the heart of the National Forest (http://www.nationalforest.org/forest/whatis/), is only a few hundred yards from the geographic centre of England - making is easy for everyone to visit. Our dream is to make it digitally inclusive too.
From 28th November 2009, ConkerTU will serve as the social media hub for sustainability, with an annual programme of eight lifestyle events to meet, tweet and stream. Individual events will tweetup experts in sustainable living with social media users and hyperlocal communities, providing a catalyst for ideas and experience that is both socially cohesive and digitally accessible.
Each ConkerTU will focus on a specific aspect of household spending, so there's relevance for us all. We're launching with Property because National Statistics show that's where we Brits spend most! We want social media junkies to engage with the stream, and newbies or wannabes to learn how to connect.
We'd love you to join us at ConkerTU, to conquer climate change, exclusion and the Credit Crunch blues – all this in the woods planted over an old coal field? You need to be at #ConkerTU!
