Just saw this on the Ubuntu-UK list and it sounds like great timing
for you (and others):

Hi everyone,

Please pass this onto your locos!

Just a quick note to let you know that Ubuntu Open Week has been
announced for the week of Mon 3 Nov - Fri 7 Nov in #ubuntu-classroom on
Freenode.

Ubuntu Open Week is a week of IRC tuition and Q+A sessions all about
getting involved in the rock-and-roll world that is the Ubuntu
community. We organise this week for the beginning of a new release
cycle to help new contributors get involved. Thanks to Jorge for helping
to get the week together and for everyone who is helping to run
sessions. Its going to be a fun week!
